International Walk to School Day is on Wednesday, October 6th. Wouldn't it be great if there were no or very few cars around Longfellow that day?
In PE we were discussing the many benefits of walking to school. It is good for your body, your mind and the environment. It helps with getting the recommended amount of daily exercise. It is fun. The students were also thinking about their parents and said they would have more free time if they did not have to drive, as well as more money, since they saved on gas for the car if their child walked to school.
