What we are learning

Happy new year! In December we wrapped up our basketball unit! We started our jump rope unit just before the winter break. Students in K-2 worked on developing their basic single rope skills, and 3-5 worked on adding various foot patterns to their repertoire of jump rope skills. Students worked on building strength, endurance and coordination through the practice of various short rope skills, as well as cooperation and teamwork needed for long jump rope. Jump rope is a wonderful way to exercise and there are countless jump rope tricks and skills that can challenge students at every level. We will be starting Volleyball and Gymnastics in the coming weeks. Wellness lessons this month will cover the skeletal and muscular system including the identification of various bones, muscles, and ways to build muscular strength, endurance and flexibility.
