Jump Rope & Wacky Wednesday Schedule for November

Greetings Chargers!

It finally feels like Fall has arrived!  This means P.E. will be moving outside for a little while. :)  Starting next week, K-1 P.E. classes will be outside (possibly until the end of the quarter).  Jackets & sweaters may be needed for those early moring classes.

This week scholars are learning the basics of jump roping.  Throughout the course of the year students will have an opportunity to practice this skill.  Jump roping is very difficult, but today the kids already showed great perseverance and such courage in trying a new, challenging skill.  Keep up the hard work students!

Below is the Wacky Wednesday Schedule for November P.E. classes:

Nov. 16    KA, KC, 1B

Welcome Back!

Greetings Chargers!

It's so great to see all the scholars back at school!  Students were eager to share all the ways they stayed active over the break.  Great job Chargers!

Today students began learning about the game of golf- specifically the putting stroke.  By the end of the unit, students will have a chance to participate in a game of putt-putt golf. 


Please remember to send your child in athletic shoes on P.E. days. (Mondays and Thursdays)

Specials Conferences

Greetings Chargers,


Wow!  It's hard to believe Fall Break begins tomorrow!  Your child has learned so much this quarter.  From basketball skills to team building exercises to locomotor skills, your child has worked hard and persevered through it all.  I look forward to another great quarter!

When your child returns from the break conferences will be held.  This year conferences with Specials area teachers will be different than in the past.  Parents will meet with all specials teachers together in the Archway Art Room to discuss their child’s progress over the course of the first quarter.  Specials conferences are optional. We recommend scheduling a conference only if a parent has particular question, concern, or love for one of our Specials. Conferences will last 15 minutes.

Here is the link to sign up for a conference: K-1 Specials Conference

Have a healthy and active break!

Team Building and Basketball

Good morning Chargers!

This week students are using team building and problem solving skills to accomplish a goal as a squad.  Each team is given the challenge to get their entire team across the "ocean" without having their body touch the "water."  They are given a few supplies to assist them: one scooter, one jump rope, and two bean bags.  Squads have come up with a variety of ways to reach land!

Next week we will begin basketball!  Students will be introduced to dribbling, passing, and shooting.  Throughout the unit, students will be able to apply these skills into a variety of games.

Please remember to send your student with shoes that have athletic soles on P.E. days (Mondays and Thursdays).

As always, thanks for checking in!
