A Note From Mr. Rodemeyer
BIS Families,
Summer is here! Summer is a time to rest and reflect on all the wonderful experiences this year has provided . In addition, it allows us all to reload, re-energize, and relax before a new, exciting school year begins. Each day this summer also provides an opportunity for learning to take place. Here are a few low-tech summertime ideas to keep the heart healthy and minds sharp:
READ, READ, READ!
Walk, bike, hike on the paths and trails throughout our city and county.
Organize a family or neighborhood frisbee golf, cornhole, soccer or baseball game together.
Plant a garden, a tree, pot a flower, or assist with landscaping around the house.
Have the kids invent or plan the menu for a family picnic or BBQ.
GO BEARS!!
Mr. Rodemeyer
