April 2008

 

 

Grades K, 1 and 2 will focus on working in cooperative groups at stations.  The stations are designed to review previously learned skills and games, in order to prepare them for the activities and rotation used during Field Day.

 

Grades 3-4-5 will also work in cooperative groups at stations.  These stations will incorporate both Fitnessgram and Field Day activities.

 

April is Fitness month for grades 3-4-5.  They will be participating in Fitnessgram. 

 

     Fitnessgram is a complete battery of health-related fitness items that are scored using criterion-referenced standards. These standards are age and gender specific and are established based on how fit children need to be for good health.

    The tests include:  mile run/walk or a pacer test, curl-ups, back-saver sit and reach (flexibility), trunk lift and push-ups.

 

Please help your child remember his/her tennis shoes on PE days. 

 

Mark your calendar, Field Day is scheduled for Friday May 30th.  More information concerning Field Day will be coming at a later date.
