Rachel is taking a tumbling class through the summer rec program.  Her classmates, too, are "challenging" and it's really hard for the preschool teacher in me to sit and watch them misbehave.  Rachel comments on how "naughty" the other girls are, but she loves her teachers and she loves tumbling.
Rachel is a whiz at stretching.  She can do the splits and then lay her whole body flat on the floor!
She can also do sommersaults from one end of the gym to the other, all in one continuous motion.
She can walk the balance beam frontwards, sideways, and backwards.
And she gives the hula hoops her best try.
But Rachel's favorite is the trampoline.
The girl can JUMP!
She loves motion and she loves moving her body, so this class is just fun!
