Week of April 27th-May 1

I hope everyone had a nice weekend! We are looking forward to going outside this week for P.E. if the weather corporates.


This week the students will be working on the long jump, high jump and 50 yard dash!

Weather permitting Mr. J will be take grades 3-5th grade outside to finish the long jump. If the weather is bad students will be working on the high jump. Grade 1-2 will be working on different activities that involve jumping.

Mrs. Cook will be taking grades 1st-5th grade outside to start the 50 yard dash. The point of all grades participating in the 50 yard dash is to help the students develop proper running form and trying to start setting goals for themselves. If the weather is bad the students will be working on jumping in the gym with Mr. J's classes.
