It was a fun week watching the students navigate through some challenges that helped to grow their community. Communication, cooperation, problem solving, and trust were some of the important skills practiced. On Thursday the Cedars played a great game called Commanders and Tanks. The commander was in charge of supporting their tank that had no vision. They had to direct their tank to pick up an item and toss it at another tank for success. It was quite fun to see their successes and challenges that came forward during this activity. The younger grades have been continuing to work on building a foundation for a great year in P.E. They have been learning about tempo, levels, and balance throughout their activities and games this week. Some of the fun games they played were Stoplight, Pick the Coconut and Zap Tag.
Please remember proper shoes for safe and effective activity in the gym!

We are in and moving! The Cedars, Alders and Clarkia will be working on cooperative games for their level for the next few weeks while they move, move, and move some more!
Huckleberries are working well together as they form different "buddy" groups, move safely around each other and learn about their own personal space in the gym. Trillium have been quickly learning what all of the cues are in P.E. You can ask them what apples, oranges, bananas, fruit punch and grapes are. P.E. Schedule: Cedars: Mon., Tue., Thur., Fri. Alders: Mon., Wed., Fri. Clarkia: Mon., Tues., Thur., Fri. Huckleberries: Mon. and Fri. for all - Tues. is South and Thur. is North Trillium: Tues. and Thur. Please remind your child to always have P.E. shoes for the above days. With much appreciation! Danielle Reeber |
