PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASS!

DECEMBER in P.E. Class
The following is NOT necessary right now, for we are skating! :)
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: ROLLER SKATING
ROLLER SKATING
All grades are taking part in a Roller Skating unit.
Skating has begun and will
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.
Students are learning all of the following in our AMAZING Skating Unit:
1. Get equipment on independently
2. Stand Up correctly into a "T" Stand
3. Skate SAFELY
4. Stop better each time, then stand in a "T" Stand
5. "Get LOW, if you're gonna go" : Bend knees all the way down if you lose your balance
6. Work on Special Skills: 1. Crossover 2. Sitting Duck 3. Skating Backwards
7. Participate every PE class and get to be a better skater!
We will skate under BRIDGES, play the game 4 Corners, and 4th and 5th grade students will be able to participate in Roller Hockey if they want (they do NOT have to, regular skating will also be taking place).
Students will have a celebration at the end of the unit, a SKATING PARTY!
Each student will be able to bring in a glow stick or any kind of light, I will provide EVERYONE with a skate light as well. The main lights will be off and I will have our special lights on so that it seems as if we are at a skating rink. The students will be able to request their favorite, school appropriate songs.
This party for everyone will take place on their LAST skate time in PE before Holiday Break.
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!
