PE Agenda For November 29-December 3

The eighth grade will complete their second quarter in PE either November 29 or 30, respectively.  The sixth grade will start their second quarter December 2 or 3, respectively.  The sixth grade journals are due the first class and Mr. Roseman will also be here to talk about health concepts.  We are opening up the gym between 7:00 and 7:30 on Tuesdays and offer different activities to the middle school kids with the help of Mr. Roseman and myself.  The students will have some options on choices of activities.  Mr. Roseman will also bring different guests in from time to time such as a rumba instructor.  We will have our sixth session this coming Tuesday (November 30) from 7:00-7:30 am in the gym.  We had our best turnout yet on Tuesday November 23.  Middle school students should wear PE clothes, regardless if they have PE on Tuesday or not, if they choose to come.

Third grade (Norman homeroom), fourth grade, and fifth grade homerooms are all at different points of basketball units.  We have been learning about ball-handling, dribbling, and have started to work on proper shooting technique.  We will also work on man-to-man defensive technique as well.  This will be the last full week that students in fourth and fifth grades have PE in the second quarter.  Students will be practicing for the Christmas Program beginning Wednesday December 8 during normal Unified Arts time in the mornings.

Mrs. Elliot’s class is still working on a volleyball unit, focusing on bumping and setting using proper technique.

Miss O’Neal’s class will work on moving to music and relay races.

Kindergarten and first grade are working on units with throwing and catching overhand.

Pre-school will start to work on learning how to throw (underhand) and catch beanbags with a partner.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
