More Volleyball...??

So this week we should have been moving on to our next unit and away from volleyball, but thanks to all the snow days we had, we find ourselves way behind. So we are going to stick with volleyball for a couple more days with the older groups (2nd through 5th).
The kindergarten and 1st graders have moved on to jump rope!! This is a rather difficult skill for some of our students. I've been telling them the key to getting better is to just keep working at it and to not get frustrated if they mess up. In PE we never care how many mess ups they have...just as long as they keep giving their best effort!!

Coming up soon we will be shifting to our next unit- Fitness Testing!! Some of the students are really excited about this, while I'm sure you can guess some others are dreading it! We will be testing/measuring the students on the following:

• Height
• Weight
• Push-ups
• Sit & Reach
• Curl-ups (sit-ups)
• Pacer

In order to follow the state and county guidelines- we will be recording height and weight on all students K-5. We will only be recording and reporting the scores on all tests listed above for 4th and 5th graders. I do like to allow the other grade levels to attempt the tests, but we just count those as practice!
Tell your student(s) to just give their best effort. That is all we ask of them!

Thanks
