Welcome to Physical Education

Welcome to another year in PE! We've had a great start  and here are some of the things we have done so far.

    Kindergarten through second grades we have been exploring different shapes with our bodies...making alphabet letters and moving like various animals. We have learned some new cooperative games and are now checking our heart rates after doing some locomotor movements such as galloping, skipping, hopping and crab walking to name a few.

     In the older grades we have spent the last few weeks working on team building and problem solving activities. Some of these activities have been up and down cones, crossing the river, team pass, hideout with many more to come.

   Just as a safety reminder: All children need to come prepared with sneakers for their PE classes. Crocks, sandals, Merrells and other shoes are not safe for PE.
