After a very successful first week of introductions in P.E. we will be starting our units for the first trimester. The sixth graders will be focusing on: field hockey, flag football and track and field in the next month. Each student will have the chance to also participate in step aerobics, jump roping and 10 minute distance runs. The heart rate monitors have been introduced to our sixth graders and we will begin practicing with them starting this week.
Seventh and eighth grade classes will be completing the track and field unit over the next few weeks, while also completing a 15 minute fitness run every week. The goal for each student is to try and stay in his/her target heart rate zone for the full 15 minutes.
I am looking forward to a very exciting first trimester and hoping that every student learns something new about Physical Education and staying healthy outside of class!
