Hi Good Sports!
Please wear your sneakers, as we will continue our running test. While I do physical fitness testing, students will be able to practice at various skill stations for self-improvement, good exercise, and taking turns with gym friends. " Leader Squad" assists as always. We will always honor Doctor and Parent notes if you are unable to participate in gym fully or with care. Please keep me informed so we can keep you safe and make necessary adaptations at any time.
Through-out the year, we will include a variety of vocabulary words that are relevant to our P.E. lessons, as well as to "real-life" lessons and useful toward positive interactions in the gym. Our vocabulary word during this Flag Tag unit is , "accurate", as we will be practicing a football throw at targets for K-2 and doing a file relay for passing and receiving for 3-6. Grades 3-6 will discuss the concepts of offense and defense.
We will then get ready for some great " Flag Tag" action, where students will have opportunities to evaluate their performance in all age groups and our older students will be able to choose whether they're on offense or defense or both for extra challenges, and fun!
As always, participate with me on Fitness Friday, if able, to get your day off to a great start! KEEP EXERCISING!!! See you soon in P.E. Class, Good Sports! Sincerely, Miss Brill

Dear Good Sports and Families,
Students, Please remember to wear your sneakers, as we have begun our Fitness test for running speed and agility. Kindergarten students will be doing the "Dash" and 1st - 6th grade will be doing the " Shuttle Run." Adaptations will always be made as needed for this and any activity. We will compare previous results, if able, to check for individual improvements.
For our younger students, please practice tying your shoelaces, at home, if your sneakers have shoelaces. We have found some great "helpers" to assist in that task for those who still need help.
We have incorporated our skills stations, where we practice various physical skills; i.e., locomotor lane, basket shots, hula hoops, jump ropes, and so on, where students take turns, are active, as well as evaluate their efforts.
We have our " 10 Wins in gym" Contest in gear. It is a "class" contest where our students demonstrate great participation, cooperative efforts, and positive behaviors through-out the marking period. Those classes receiving all 10's will receive treats from me at report card time. Individual great efforts are rewarded on report cards. Way to go!
Thank you for doing your best when you come to P.E. Class and being Good Sports!
This cycle we will be participating in Parachute Activities. It is a great cooperative activity, where we all work together as a team and it's super fun!!!
I enjoyed hearing from my classes that they were participating with me in our Fitness Friday activity, as were many staff members, too. Of course we follow all Drs. notes.
Always encourage others to be active. Keep yourself and family motivated to exercise for good health. You're AWESOME!!!!!!! See you in P.E.Class and keep Exercising!
Sincerely,
Miss Brill
