Happy Wednesday! I hope you are having a great week so far! Below is a video from BrainPop. The video talks about the importance of hand washing during this time and what soap does to the germs on your hands. Can you think of 3 different times it is important to wash your hands? I hope you have a wonderful day! Love, Mrs. Ham Hand Washing Video I have no rights to this video.

Good morning, Bobcats! As most of you know, sun safety is something I am very serious about!  So, here we go!! Some sun is good and here’s why.  When our skin is exposed to the sun, our bodies make vitamin D, which helps our body absorb calcium for stronger, healthier bones.  We also get vitamin D from healthy foods and even supplements so you only need a short amount of time in the sun! Too much unprotected exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause skin damage, eye damage, weakener immune system, and skin cancer.  This is why you *MUST PROTECT YOURSELF* by wearing SUNSCREEN and avoiding too much exposure. ☀️Before you head out, be sun smart:☀️ 🌞use SUNSCREEN (SPF 30+) ☂ seek SHADE and 🧢COVER up👕 between 10-4 when the sun is the strongest 😎 wear SUNGLASSES  to protect you eyes 🖐apply and reapply sunscreen often and generously! Have fun, be smart! 💗Mrs. Emert

Good Morning, Bobcats! Ace never lets us forget his water bottle when we go on hikes. He will refuse to walk when he’s thirsty and just stare at his water bottle!  He’s super cute!  Let Ace be a reminder to you of the importance of staying HYDRATED!! You need to be drinking water all throughout the day.  A good goal for you is 5-7 glasses a day.  Adults need 8-10 glasses!  Juice is okay— in moderation, as a treat —but remember it has a lot of added sugar!!  Have a beautiful day!  I miss each one of you! (Look for a “water challenge” on the next Specialist’s Board!) 💜Mrs. Emert

Greetings Bobcats!  There are different ways to be healthy we call these healthy habits. We talk about our physical health a lot! Eating healthy, getting plenty of exercise, going to the doctor and making safe choices. There is something called your emotional health. Emotional health is when you are working to feel good about yourself, you do something to make yourself happy and you are able to share and understand feelings. There is another healthy habit called social health. Social health is working on how to talk to others in a kind way, being able to work through problems with others and knowing how to build and maintain a healthy friendship. Today I challenge you to sit down with the adult in your family and write down or talk about an example of each healthy habit that you already do. You could even talk about how you can improve these healthy habits. Stay Happy and Healthy! Love, Mrs. Ham

Hello Bobcats! I’m feeling a little tired this morning, so let’s talk SLEEP💤!  Sleep is as important as exercise for your body and brain.  Did you know that researchers believe too little sleep can affect growth and your immune system—which keeps you from getting sick? I know life feels a lot different right now but it’s important to stick to your normal sleep schedule and that means going to bed at your regular time. I plan to go to bed earlier tonight:). Remember, you guys need a total of 10-12 hours of sleep a night! Even our pets need sleep to stay healthy just like we do. As you can see, Ollie loves to snuggle up and sleep!  How many hours of sleep did you get last night?  Do you need more tonight, like me? Stay healthy, stay active and rest well! Miss you much, Mrs. Emert 💫
