Update: Ressie Jefferies Elementary School on a mission to teach kids how to ride a bike

Last week we visited Ressie Jefferies Elementary School to learn how they teach kindergarten kids to ride bikes. It was interesting how Physical Education teacher Nick Simmons worked with the kids and had them gliding around the gym. He mentioned that they would install pedals on the bikes on the last two days of class and have the kids pedal and ride the bikes. This is something we had to see.

Some struggled to get their feet on the pedals and to keep their eyes forward. We all looked down as kids, trying to locate the pedals. Nick and the staff have lots of patience, working with the kids and having them all riding.
