 * Ideas:**
 * Tenets of Martial Arts: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-control, Indomitable Spirit
 * How could we incorporate these concepts with Lincoln Pride?
 * Kung Fu Animal movements: tiger, snake, crane, leopard, dragon, monkeys, etc.
 * Could we incorporate this animals in research for science? (Adaptations)
 * Could we incorporate Chinese Martial Arts and fit in Haiku, Chinese New Year, etc.? We do have two Chinese teachers that will be in the district this year. Could we create videos of them teaching a new word or phrase for students to learn?
 * Maybe the Chinese teachers could hook us up with a 4th/5th grade class/school in their hometown that we could communicate with?
