PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASS!

November in P.E. Class
If it is a P.E. day, make sure that you have good running shoes on!
Here is the P.E. schedule:
Yellow and Green Days: Hayden, Morris, Colling Fowler, and Bens
Orange and Violet Days: LaCross, Todd, Shaheen Stasyk, and Husek
Blue and Red Days: Hoehing, Perkins-Rose, Lynch, Pavlovich, and Camaj
So get those tennis shoes on and let's have some FUN!
This year's theme in P.E. is: MOVIN' and GROOVIN'!
Our focus will be on the 3 Types of Exercise: Muscular Strength, Aerobic Endurance, and Flexibility. With that, students in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade will be tracking their performance in these areas in their P.E. Portfolios, using the standards from FITNESSGRAM. We will be practicing jogging (running endurance) every month, to improve our Mile Jog score from Fall to Spring. We will be working on our techniques in the Push Up and Curl Up every month, trying to increase our performance. Finally, we will be doing the Sit and Reach each month to further our stretch and flexibility. Our goal will be to improve each time, but especially from Pre to Post Test, or Fall to Spring results. I know we will get better each time!
Unit: Underhand and Overhand Throw / Movin' and Groovin' Goal/ Skating Begins!
Overhand and Underhand
Students will be learning and working on their Overhand and Underhand Throw. Hitting a target with POWER, being able to catch the ball a partner throws, and incorporating this skill in games such as Dr. Dodgeball.
Students will be evaluated on this skill near the end,
being able to hit the target with POWER.
Movin' and Groovin' Goal
Students are expected to improve their numbers in their fitness scores from the Fall Results of the Fitnessgram. Each month we will work on Aerobic Endurance (10 minute jog), Muscular Strength (curl ups and push ups),
and Flexibility (Sit and Reach).
Students complete the November Movin' and Groovin' Goal!
ROLLER SKATING
All grades will take part in a Roller Skating unit.
Skating will begin on Tuesday, November 20th and
continue through Friday, December 21st.
All students are encouraged to bring in their own labeled helmet, and I will store it for them. Only 4th and 5th grade students are allowed to bring in their
own skates or blades. I am looking for parent volunteers to assist with younger skaters, I sent an informational note home, please let me know if you need one!
Grading in P.E. Class
Kindergarten NOT graded in Specials Classes
Students can earn the following scores:
4 = Exemplary
3 = Proficient
2 = Partially Proficient
1 = Not Proficient
Students are graded on each skill that we complete in class, and for the report card,
are also graded on Effort and Violet's Lifeskills.
Students have two Target Goals in every P.E. class to accomplish, along with learning the importance of our LIFESKILLS, Lifelong Guidelines, and The 7 Habits of Happy Kids. These social aspects are just as important as the motor and sports skills learned in Physical Education class, as our students learn to be a responsible, caring All Stars!
I am SO EXCITED to be your child's/children's Physical Education Teacher!
