Get outside and be active!
Wednesday, February 3 is this year’s Winter Walk Day. The goal is to get more Albertans physically active outdoors during the winter. Just because it is cold outside, it does not mean we can’t be active outdoors. Most of us already doing this; February 3 is a great time to celebrate it. It may be as simple as walking to and from school, playing in the snow, taking a walk after dinner, going bird watching, or any of the countless activities we are fortunate to be able to do during the winter.
Wolf Moon
Did you know today is quite special? It is a full moon and not just any full moon. It's a Wolf Moon. We inquired about what this means and how we can connect to this idea as a class. When wolves howl during the wolf moon, they aren't just howling for hunting or mating purposes, they also howled to "reinforce social bond" and locate other members of their pack who have been separated.
