I am excited for the start of a new school year!  It's fun to see familiar faces and I look forward to meeting our new students. 2017-2018 is going to be a great year!  In PE, we learn about the importance of exercise and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Scooter Scatter is always a blast!  Students are in pairs and have a home base spot.  One student is on the scooter and tries to kick the big ball while not falling off.  The other student stands on the home base spot and helps keep the balls in bounds.  Students earn points each time they kick a ball and lose points when they fall off their scooter.  It's a CRAZY but really fun game! :) 

💕WE DID IT!!!! 💕 We reached and exceeded our goal of $12,500.  Our students raised $13,112!  WOW!!!  I am SO proud of our students; they are truly making a difference in the lives of kids and adults with sick hearts. Check out the pictures from our Jump Rope and Hoops for Heart events.  😍 Congratulations to our top fundraisers...the Kings & Queens of Hearts!            

Recently in PE in grades K, 1, and 2 we've been learning about and practicing jumping, hopping, and leaping.  The students always enjoy the jump, hop, and leap circuit as well as playing Leaping Lizard. We have been practicing volleyball skills in grades 3, 4, and 5.  The students practiced the bump, set, spike, and underhand serve.
