Getting Ready for Fitness!

Sorry for missing a couple of posts. We have been doing some awesome things in PE over the last few weeks.

2-5th grade:
- Kicking
-Punt, Pass & Kick Competition
- Fitness testing introduction
- Fitness Testing

K & 1:
- Locomotor skills
- Learning the “Partner Pacer” which is a modified version of part of the fitness testing they will be participating in during the upper grades.
-Intro to kicking

This week we are in the full swing of fitness testing. 2nd grade through 5th grade will be participating in the Fitness Gram fitness test. For more information you can visit the fitness gram web site by clicking here. We came up with a new way to track data that will allow students to track their fitness growth from year to year. It is running smooth so far!

The younger grades will not be officially fitness testing. However, we will take them through a modified version of some of the tests and introduce some basic fitness concepts. For now, we will be sticking with some more kicking skills this week for the 1st grade and kindergarten classes. We focused on dribbling last week. This week we will be covering kicking for both short and long distances.

Thanks for the support!!
