Bobby told Grandpa John that his brain didn’t feel ready to go back to school.
Grandpa John smiled and said, “I have just what you need to get your brain ready for school.” With that he got up and left the room. When he came back, he had a book of word searches. He gave the book to Bobby, saying, “Doing a few of these word searches ought to get your brain up to speed.”
Here is one of the word searches that Bobby did to get his brain up to school speed. Let’s see how you do.
Is your brain up to school speed? Check it out.
Just print out this page and find the words listed on the left in the word puzzle on the right.

Coach Campbell visited the “Can Do” Kids classroom to encourage each “Can Do” to take up a sport if they didn’t already play a sport.
He began by going around the room and asking each “Can Do” what sport they played or would like to play. Then he talked about a sport they could play through the school athletics program and what sport they might like to try that the recreation center sponsored.
Some of the kids said they played softball. Others said they played soccer. Some didn’t play any sports, but said they would like to learn about different sports in the hopes they would learn about a sport that would interest them.
Coach Campbell put a matching game up on the computers and asked the “Can Dos” to each sit at his or her computer and see each one of them could match the picture to the name of the sport.
The “Can Dos” were so surprised to see that there was a sport or two, or three or four that they didn’t recognize.
Go see if there is a sport or two you don’t recognize. Just go to the “Can Do” Club House, choose games, choose sports and see how you do.

During school break, some of the “Can Dos” went on a day trip to the Botanical Gardens to view the spring flowers on display and learn their names.
The trip was sponsored by the “Can Do” Street Community Center. Some of the members of the Seniors Club went along as chaperons. Since some of the members of the Seniors Club kept flower gardens, they made excellent tour guides.
Once at the Botanical Gardens, the “Can Dos” were broken up into small groups of four. Each group had a senior tour guide.
They made there way through the beautiful displays of flowers, stopping to smell the flowers, learn their names and how to take care of them.
When they got back to school after the break, Miss Pat asked the “Can Dos” that went on the trip to share with the rest of the class about what they saw and what they learned.
That evening, Miss Pat decided to make a matching game about spring flowers. Well, it was tough, because not all the class was familiar with the names of the flowers and how to spell their names. Miss Pat had to help out more than usual with this matching game.
Guess who did the best. Nope, not Orrie. It was Willie. How come? Well, he helps his grandpa, Grandpa Dooley, plant and care for his flower garden, so he knew the names of all the flowers.
Okay, your turn. Go to the “Can Do”Club House…choose games and choose “Spring Flowers.”

Miss Pat noticed the “Can Dos” were getting tired of all the counting exercises she was giving them to do. She decided to make a few counting games they could do on the computer.
The counting games were not as easy to do as the “Can Dos” thought they would be but they were more fun than doing counting problems on paper.
The counting games are all about putting the numbers in the right order. It took some of the “Can Dos” longer than others to get the counting games right.
Guess who was first to finish the counting games and to get them right? Nope, not Orrie but Annie. She is really good at counting!
Why don’t you try? Go to The “Can Do” Club House and choose games, then choose…counting by 5s.
