We are excited about PE!


Things have started smoothly this year!  So far we have learned and reviewed personal space, locomotor skills, and non-locomotor skills.  Can you believe your children can explain these terms??!  I can, because  they are so smart and so much fun to have in PE!
We have just started a unit on soccer skills.  We talked about all the different ways to kick a ball and the importance of keeping the ball close when you dribble.  We practiced foot-dribbling while we avoided knocking over obstacles (another big word our PE students know) and tried to control the soccer ball.  I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you ask your kids to tell you the meaning of these big words!!
