Central 4th graders participated in their December taste testing for the Healthy Students Healthy Schools. December's food items: Jicama & Cherry Tomatoes. Due to Jicama being locally unavailable, we used Rutabaga (another item in the turnip family).
Through the Healthy Students Healthy Schools grant, the 4th grade nutrition education lesson consisted of playing a game with food item cards on their backs. The other students had to answer yes or no questions to help that student determine what food item they "were."
Act of kindness by 4th graders. Students wrote a positive message or quote and attached it to a sucker for the 5th graders.

Preschool Kindness Activity
Did you play an instrument when you were in school? Do you have it laying around and miss playing? Come join in the music-making fun and perform your favorite winter and holiday music in the entryway of the school.
If you would like to perform with Central Band students or with other community members before school, please contact Ms. Wilming at lwilming@central.k12.ia.us with your name, instrument, and preferred date of performance! We look forward to making music with you.
Happy Holidays from the Central Band department!
