Physical Education

 

In Physical Education, students are expected to wear tennis shoes for class. Girls must wear shorts under their skirts or dresses.  If unable to participate, students must bring a note from home.  A note from a dr. is required if a student is going to miss several days of class.

The units we will be doing this year are: basketball, volleyball, jump rope, as well as dance and fitness.  The students do a 5 – 6 minute run to warm up before beginning the activity for the day.  We also incorporate lots of eye-hand coordination activities such as cup stacking, cupballs, catching and throwing.  Improving the overall fitness of our students is a high priority for Physical Education at Trinity Elementary.  This year, students participated in an in-school field trip where they did a program called “C’Motion”.  This activity is similar to dance dance revolution, where students wear a pedometer and track the number of steps taken during the activity.  We are looking forward to a great year in Physical Education!
