The HCHM group met for 2 weeks at Eli Terry MS in Terryville, CT. I enjoy taking the students to this school because of its brand new weight room containing a variety of cool fitness machines that make exercising fun! This year, the HCHM group enjoyed their time riding spin style bikes on a virtual outdoor course. I had fun racing with one of the students. I beat him by a hair, he did not realize I was a master spinner!!! During the afternoon at Eli Terry, the students also participated in active P.E.games with our enthusiastic P.E. teacher, Mr. Sconz... and lastly, Laura King, a certified health education specialist, joined us. Laura taught the middle school students how to quesadillas. Not just regular quesdadillas, but Italian, French and Greek style ones. Students got to smell, touch, and look at many different herbs and spices, and then used compbinations of flavors to make the different ethnic choices. The kids had a blast preparing the meal which was delicious!!!
