== This week, I would like to hear what you did over spring break! More specifically, I would love to hear how you stayed active and worked off all that Easter candy that you ate! Please complete this in FULL SENTENCES. Read about my spring break below! ==

=== Over spring break I spent a lot of time with my 2 kids, Elliott and Gavin. We were very busy going to the YMCA every morning for me to get some exercise and my kids to play in the daycare center (which they love). Some of the places we went to are the Milwaukee County Zoo, the Henry Vilas Zoo in Madison, and Monkey Joes. Besides those places we took many walks and bike rides around the block, played with bubbles and chalk outside, and watched a bunch of movies. As you can see, I am not very good at sitting still even when I am not teaching gym class. :) Here is a picture of my kids at the zoo in Madison! === =

How do you think a person's body composition is tested?
== ~ Body Composition is measured by calculating a person’s Body Mass Index (or BMI). Elementary students’ body composition is constantly changing due to rapid growth spurts, so children have a different BMI calculation table than adults. Calculating your BMI is generally something your doctor will do at a wellness check that you might not even be aware of to make sure that your body is healthy. ==

=Welcome Mrs. Bauer's Class!!!=

Welcome to our new wiki that we will be using throught the school year. Some of us maybe already know how to use a wiki but others may not. So, to begin, I would like you to watch the following video on what a wiki is and what it can be used for to help you better understand how we plan on using this.

media type="youtube" key="-dnL00TdmLY?version=3" height="360" width="640"

Once you have previewed this video, please find your personal page located on this wiki on the left toolbar under "all pages". Feel free to spruce up your page with color or pictures to make it your own space as long as it is easy for others to navigate. Then I would like you to write a few sentences telling me how your summer was and what your favorite activity was to get some practice using the wiki. yeah
