Dear Families,
In Physical
Education class, your son/daughter have just completed kicking and trapping
grades (k-2) and juggling grades (3-5).
The culminating events for both units were soccer team bowling for the
lower grades. This is to afford them the opportunity to apply their kicking and
trapping skills in a game situation.
The upper grades had to choose one juggling equipment out of many, and
create a juggling routine themselves, with a partner, or in a small group. They performed their routines in front
of their peers.
Beginning
this month, grades (k-5) will start an outdoor winter unit with a focus on character
development based on the school-wide expectations of C.A.R.E.S
(cooperation, assertion, responsibility, empathy, and self-control). These are skills that will allow them
to be successful in school and in life.
Please
have your son/daughter prepare to spend PE class outdoors for the next two to
three weeks. Don’t hesitate to let
us know if you have any questions and/or concerns.
In health,
Emmanuel Riby-Williams and Marie
“MJ” Jennings
