PE Agenda April 22-25

Parents,

*****We will be out of the gym all week due to the Spring Book Fair in the gym.  Please have your son or daughter watch the weather.  Even though it is getting warmer, it is still chilly in the mornings.  Please have your children dressed accordingly.  We will be outside as much as possible.

We will continue President's Testing with Grades 3-5. The testing consists of a series of Physical Education tests that gauge muscular strength, muscular endurance, speed and quickness, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance. The tests include pull-ups, curl-ups, flex arm hang, shuttle run, pushups, sit and reach, mile run (jog) and I have added an additional test and that is the pole climb on the playground. The idea is all students will show improvement from their first quarter testing.

Middle School Schedule
Tuesday April 22--"C" Day (6th Grade has PE)
Thursday April 24--"A" Day (7th Grade has PE)
Friday April 25--"B" Day (8th Grade has PE)

Second grade has started a Kickball Unit.  We will continue to work on terminology.  In addition, we will learn through the use of different scenarios and situations.  We will also talk about nutrition and moderation this week as well.

Kindergarten and first grade will learn about nutrition and moderation in the classroom this week along with movement games (hopefully outside).

HAPPY EASTER!
