Dear Parents,

May is Family Wellness Month. Family Wellness is something that impacts every one of us. While medical health is important, Family Wellness Month emphasizes healthy family lifestyles and habits as well. The healthier each individual is overall, the healthier we can all be as a family!

In honor of Family Wellness Month we are asking the families in our school to help their children focus on two areas of wellness- exercise and healthy food choices.

We will be encouraging children to discuss these areas in school, and to talk about some of the good choices we all make to keep ourselves healthy. On the back of this page you will find a chart. Use the chart to record some of the healthy choices your family makes this week. Every child who participates and returns the sheet on Friday will get a prize!

A new sheet will go home each Friday in May, and the following Friday the children will get prizes related to the theme of exercise and good nutrition. We hope many of you will participate in our celebration of Family Wellness Month, and enjoy exploring healthy choices together!
