FUEL UP TO PLAY 60 This is a national program sponsored by the national dairy council and the NFL to remind kids to fuel up by eating enough healthy foods and to play at least 60 minutes everyday. The site helps kids track what they eat and how much they play so kids are aware that they are getting enough good food and exercise, but it certainly is not a diet. young children do not need to worry so much about becoming unhealthy, but they should mostly be aware of the healthy things they do and keep those habits. This will help them keep these habits for a long time. The program is free to sign up. Go to fueluptoplay60.com to start. The more people we have gaining points the better the chance we have at winning prizes for the school. So get your friends involved and lets start getting healthy! ATTENTION Make sure your child wears sneakers every day if they are going to be running around. Please make sure that they are tight on their feet, not loosely laced (the crossed lace method). It is a hazard to have loose shoes (even at recess). Children often step on the back of each others feet and when they go up and down stairs it becomes a big injury risk. If they are not able to be tightened they will have to either borrow a pair from me (I have clean used ones, but I do not carry all sizes) or if they are not wearing socks the will have a written assignment to do. The gym floor can get very slippery (even for sneakers) so proper footwear is key. What is P.E. all about? The physical education program here at P.E.S. is designed to give the students a wide variety of new and familiar experiences. The games and activities we do are centered around giving our bodies new ways to move and learn how to use it (the learning we do is centered around the body and not the gym or the games hence the term physical education and not gym). I try to keep a positive atmosphere in hopes that the students find a new activity they enjoy and can apply it to their healthy lifestyle. I stress trying your best to win but it is not important to remember which team won the game but what we learned from it whether we won or lost. Other components include, fitness, healthy eating and (fifth grade only) information about hygiene and issues when growing up (puberty). When students leave PES, I hope they have enough knowledge of their bodies to keep themselves healthy for a lifetime. Theses basic skills will be refined and mastered in the middle and high school levels. First grade- Students in first grade spend the first half of the year learning the rules of the gymnasium, how to move safely and follow general school rules. We learn about some of our special P.E. words (general space, open space, direction, pathway,levels, force, time, flow, etc.) and exploring what they mean in terms of our body. Once the students have shown control over their bodies we begin learning basic movements (throwing, kicking, striking with implements, chasing, fleeing, dodging, etc.). Games are mixed in to help illustrate the points. Second grade- Third grade- Fourth grade- Fifth grade-
