As you know, we've been playing basketball in p.e. classes this past week. The week of 2/2, we will will conclude basketball and begin our dance unit. Students in the 5th grade are having tests for shooting and a written test as well. All other grades only have a written test. The test will be on Tues. and a study guide has been distributed to all students.
During our dance unit, we do line and party dances as well as dances from other countries and american folk dance. It's really a lot of fun!
Stay active, stay healthy.

Basketball
We began our basketball unit this week. The students have been working very hard, as usual. By next week, many students will be like the "pros".
Again, many thanks to all the parents who stopped by during our roller skating to help us tie skates, help students, and visit with students and teachers. The students made unbelievable progress in their ability to skate.
Remember, stay active, and healthy.

Next week we will begin our basketball unit, which also will continue for two weeks.
Have a great weekend. Stay warm. Stay active. Stay healthy.

NEW YEAR
Wow! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and winter break.
The gym certainly is a busy place since we have returned. 3rd grade games intramurals are taking place before school daily. After school we have 4/5th grade basketball for both boys and girls. In addition 4th grade hockey is being played as well. As you can see, our students are eager to be active and stay healthy. We encourage all our students to take part in some type of activity daily outside of school. As you know, childhood obesity is on the rise and will keep this generation from living longer than the current generation. Please encourage your students to be active and be a good mentor.
We have been roller skating during physical education class this week. Next week is more of the same. You wouldn't believe how the students' ability has improved in just these few days. What a great aerobic activity. Feel free to stop by to help us tie skates or just to watch your child. We have lots of fun!
