Touch Football by Maddie


I like Touch Football because I watch college and NFL football and it makes me feel like I am in the real stadium. But I'm really not.

So the rules are very simple as well, like no jumping on top of each other and you're not allowed to have the ball for more than 5 seconds then the defender can tag you.

The object is to have fun and get as many touchdowns as you can!! You should try to get the football before it hits the ground. Football is a fun, super fun sport! Have fun!!

Fire Safety Assembly by Ellie

This week we had a fire safety assembly and you learned lots about fire safety. For example, "KEEP OUT AND STAY OUT!" and like "Stop, drop, and roll!" And they showed us their equipment they wear when there is a fire and I thought that was cool! You should make a meeting spot outside in case there is a fire.

FIRE!
