Operation Fit Kids 

Sponsored by West Shore Hospital 
March 2010

On Wednesday, March 3, fifth graders began the eight week session of Operation Fit Kids, taught by Dorothy Batzer, sponsored by West Shore Hospital.  The students received their Fit Kids packets, and each received a pedometer to track the steps they take during the school day.  Teams will work together to try to take enough steps to “visit” the Galapagos Islands.  The students are also keeping track of the foods they eat, and learned an exercise routine. 

Fit Kids was fun.  I won an award for walking the most steps.  I also got an award because the blue team had the most steps.  I got two cookbooks, a squeeze ball, a yoga tape, and a bandage holder.  The blue team had a lot of steps.  I had a lot of fun! ~Michele

 

 I really liked the Fit Kids program.  I liked walking to the Galapagos Islands.  It was a lot of fun.  We got to use pedometers.  Our class had a party for Fit Kids.  It was a lot of fun. ~Matt

 

Over eight weeks, the Onekama fifth grade class had Fit Kids.  Fit Kids is a program that teaches fifth grade students the importance of eating right and exercising.  I liked Fit Kids because we got to wear pedometers to count our steps.  The cool part was the virtual trip to the Galapagos Islands.  To make it to the Galapagos Islands your team has to have a certain amount of steps.  The team who won was the blue team.  Fit Kids was very cool.  Thanks Mrs. Batzer! ~Kyle

 

I think Fit Kids was really fun!  My favorite part of Fit Kids was wearing the pedometers every day.  I also really liked at the end when we had a party.  I liked the mango sherbet.  We went on a virtual trip to the Galapagos Islands.  All but one team got to go there and back.  I really enjoyed the experience of being in Fit Kids. ~Robert

This year we did a program called Fit Kids.  It was very fun.  I learned a lot.  I learned how to stay in shape.  Our challenge was to walk to the Galapagos Islands.  The program was really fun ~Mark
