Physical Education

Tricia Pate & Jason Cate

 

Our goal for physical education is to have FUN!  So much so, that exercise and physical fitness become a way of life.  It is important that we understand the relationship between physical activity and being healthy throughout our lives.  We all WIN when we are HAPPY and healthy!

 

The K-2 curriculum focuses on fundamental movement skills, lead up games, good sportsmanship and cooperation.  The students will participate in a variety of creative and challenging activities that develop strength, endurance, and flexibility.  

 

In grades 3-4, students continue to develop strength, endurance, and flexibility as they participate in more dynamic game situations. Sport-specific skills appropriate for their age will also be introduced which will include game strategies, rules, and etiquette.  This includes responding to winning and losing with dignity and understanding.

 

Overall, our focus is on providing a noncompetitive atmosphere where every student has the chance for success and our emphasis is on doing your personal best!
