Parents,
We will be finishing President's Testing with Grades 3-8. 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. We have started or will be starting the mile for many of our classes. Students that have an inhaler, please make sure it is with them.
Middle School Schedule
Monday May 19--"C" Day (6th Grade has PE)
Tuesday May 20--"A" Day (7th Grade has PE)
Thursday May 22--"B" Day (8th Grade will be in Washington DC)
Friday May 23--"C" Day (6th Grade has PE)
Second grade will continue a Kickball Unit. We will continue to work on terminology. We will continue playing kickball games and stopping when we need to explain certain situations that we have been working on within class. We will also start a Whiffle Ball Unit that coincides with the Kickball Unit.
Kindergarten and first grade will work with movement games--this will be the last week for both grade levels.
Good luck to the 8th grade in DC!
Have a great week!

Parents,
Some groups have not finished I-STEP yet and will continue this week. We will continue President's Testing with Grades 3-8. 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. We will be starting the mile this week or next week for many of our classes (dependent upon the completion of I-STEP, Annual Fund Dinner set-up, and of course the weather). Students that have an inhaler, please make sure it is with them this week and plan on having them dress accordingly--we will be out of the gym Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday because of the Annual Fund Dinner (Thursday night).
