We just finished a striking unit in PE.  We learned that "to strike" something means "to hit" it.  We discussed lots of activities that we can do where we strike something, like: 

volleyball, tennis, baseball, softball, pool, hockey, ping pong, and lots of others.

We did fun activities to practice striking.  We used our hands   to strike balloons, we played "Sneetch Ball" (that was a little like volleyball), we played scooter hockey and we played table hockey.  Table hockey will come out again around Field Day. 

 Field Day, by the way,  will be coming before we know it.  It is scheduled this year for Friday, May 6.  Save the date!!
