Learning Challenge; Deskercise

https://hbr.org/2015/12/6-yoga-exercises-you-wont-be-embarrassed-to-do-at-your-desk?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=harvardbiz

My neck and upper back begin to ache a lot when I sit for too long at a desk. These exercises and stretches would help me with that. My two favorite from this article was the shoulder rolls and the neck stretch. I really think that these two would benefit me the most from where I start to cramp from leaning over my desk for too long. I also think the back twist would work great as well. You can do these easily and it is not embarrassing.

Reading Notes, English tales: Three Little Pigs

The three little pigs is one of the most famous tales I want to keep the beginning of the story the same " ill huff and ill puff and ill blow your house down" After the wolf gets to the third house I can change the story around the wolf gets tricked every time and I could change that around to where the wolf was doing so on purpose The wolf talks about different ways to get the last pig out. I could change the way he tries to get him out of the house. Maybe even spy on the pig to devise a plan.  I don't want to take away from the original story but I feel like I could have some better ideas to make it more interesting.  Joseph Jacobs, Three Little Pigs; Link to reading The Wolf
