Welcome to 2017! While the weather has been mild for Columbus, there are still weeks of winter to go! We are making preparations to provide the kids with multiple indoor recess opportunities, but we need volunteers to make it happen. PLEASE CONSIDER SPENDING SOME OF YOUR LUNCH HOURS THIS WINTER WITH OUR EXCELLENT WICKLIFFE KIDS! Volunteer time commitment will be 10:55-12:05. Indoor recess alternative will be offered through the month of March whether it is an INSIDE or OUTSIDE recess day for the rest of the students. If it is an OUTSIDE recess day, Walking Club will be held OUTSIDE.
Walking Club/Exercise Loop – Halls – 3 volunteers
We’re bringing this favorite inside! Our interior laps will now include stairs and fitness stations including jumping jacks, high knees and/or sit-ups.
Open Art – Art Room – 1 volunteer
Unstructured art with donated, school and PTO-provided art supplies! The kids take the lead in deciding what they want to do. Volunteers are welcome to come with ideas for art projects, but no creative expertise is necessary.
Library Quiet Reading – Library – 1 volunteer
This great option will give kids the chance to chill with their favorite book either from the shelves or from home. Those volunteers with interest can work on their storytelling skills or serve as willing listeners for students perfecting their reading skills.
Please feel free to volunteer for 1 day or 30! The kids really love having these opportunities to do something different, spend time with friends from other classes and stretch their legs.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Karen Robertson at [email protected] or text 614-946-3052. THANK YOU!
