A Message from the Gym


Wednesday Sep 02 2009 
 
Welcome back from a well deserved  vacation.

It is important to me that every child feels successful every time they have gym, and that they leave class eager to have physical education again. That is why I plan to incorporate the “SEAD” philosophy. Our classes will be Safe, Enjoyable, Active and Developmentally appropriate.

One of my class goals is to actively engage children in a fair amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity to improve and/or maintain their physical health and well being.
Another goal is to encourage children to apply the skills and knowledge they acquire during class and to seek opportunities to be active outside of school as part of a healthy lifestyle. Instructional units are planned to develop motor, personal, and social skills.

In order to provide the best possible experience for your child, we must all work together as a team! Please remind your child to bring their gym clothes when they have gym.

 A thought to live by  

“When Health is absent 

Wisdom cannot reveal itself, 

Art cannot become manifest, 

Strength cannot be exerted, and 

Reason becomes powerless”

 
 Herophilus, 300 B.C.E
