P.E. Class this week

Second Grade

Besides working on following instructions, we will be strengthening laterality (i.e. right and left, around, through it).

Third Grade

We will continue to work on the appropriate ways to warm up. Each student will have the opportunity to contribute with an exercise. We will also be working on follow instructions with games and directions given to the students, and participating in speed and strategy games. 

Fourth Grade

This week we will continue addressing the physical bases of the body conducting and assessments in speed, jumping, strength, and endurance. These assessments establish a starting point to determine the physical capabilities of each student.

Fifth Grade

This week will continue to learn about the physical condition of each student. Each student will be encouraged to put forth his or her best effort in a battery of standardized tests, each task focusing on a different physical element of their basic skills.
