Brooklyn started rec soccer last week and is having a great time running back and forth down that field. Her good friend Kayla even scored one of the first goals of the season! Brooklyn is often a midfielder because she can run.
They also had a "running test" in P.E. this week as they did at the beginning of the year. They run a timed mile with their. At the beginning of the year, she came in third (though it's not a race :) and her time was just over 8 minutes. This week, she paced herself well, gave a good sprint at the end, came in second in her class, and decreased her time to 7 minutes 45 seconds! We think that's cool.
Also this week, we attended a middle school orientation (!!!!!!!!!!!!!) for the gifted program she'll be in. It seems like a really great program and Brooklyn has some good friends attending also. She will have to wake up and get ready earlier which is a bit of a struggle currently but we are all excited.
