Into the Woods by Maria M.
When I was walking, I saw a trail that I never knew about. Mr. Giacomini, a wri ng teacher at Gow, took my class down because he wanted us to take notes on what was surrounding us. Even today, that trail is s ll open and it is located near the volleyball courts and to the right of the camp fire. It is very new and about a year old.
In the woods there are many ac vi es people can do. Some ac vi es are fun and some ac vi es are not so fun. The fun things are biking, relaxing, picking flowers, and hiking😎. The best thing is swimming, but it is too cold to swim. Maybe instead you can skip rocks. Some people enjoy bird watching but if it was me I would give up watching birds because they don't do anything but fly and sing. There are many reasons why adults and students should go out and take a walk or hike. One of the reasons is hiking boosts kids' and adults' mood. Mr. Miller, a PhD, president of the American Hiking Society said, "Research shows that hiking has a posi ve impact on comba ng the symptoms of stress and anxiety." Hiking is also a great way to get exercise which can increase your mood. If people get stressed and they need to do something to take the stress away, they can go outside to the trail and hike and they will be happy they took the hike.

No. My stress reliever is walking around during AIC and going to bubble soccer and knocking kids down. What is your favorite part of the job?
Walking around and playing games because it's basi‐
