PORT ANGELES — A fifth-grade class at Franklin Elementary School has taken hands-on learning to a new level.

Students juggle scarves, balls and other objects twice a week for 40 minutes per session to improve their learning abilities.

“Juggling has helped my reading so much,” said Randy Reader, 11, a student in the class.

“It has made me read so much faster, and I never want to miss juggling because I love it so much.”
