Physical Education (PE)

P.E. Press

This month we are practicing volley skills! Kindergarten through 2nd grade students have begun volleying with balloons and beach balls, and 3rd through 5th grade students have started with beach balls and progress to volleyball trainers. In addition to serving, bumping and setting, students will learn how to communicate positively with one another and be part of a team!

 

Additionally, on gym days, we have started our gymnastics unit. This unit offers a great opportunity for students to improve their strength, flexibility, balance and coordination. Throughout the unit students will learn foundational skills such as rolls, weight transfers and basic vaulting techniques while also emphasizing safety and proper form!

 

Wellness lessons this month are all about the muscular system. Not only will students learn the names of many muscles, but they will also learn about how to take care of their muscular system by warming up properly and engaging in exercises to improve muscular strength, endurance and flexibility.
