Introduction Our service project was created for Mrs.
Spradling’s Kindergarten class at Pea Ridge Elementary School. Our goal was to reinforce the importance of basic health. We feel that teaching the students personal wellness is a key essential in everyday life. Basic health concepts are often disregarded at a young age, but when incorporated into their daily routines it helps the students develop good health habits that benefit them for the rest
of their lives.

with the students and spent 15 minutes reinforcing the lesson taught.
