Welcome


 

My goal is to teach students about lifelong fitness.
I show students exercises and educate them on the importance of fitness throughout their entire life!! Students also need to be expose to different, fun activities or games that will allow them to have success in physical education!

PE/Health News
 

A new guideline has been developed to help students make good decisions about eating! The new USDA food icon - MyPlate - was developed to show the appropriate portion sizes and different food groups kid need! Check the link out!

  http://www.choosemyplate.gov/  

    This is the icon for MyPlate which replaced MyPyramid in June 2011. The new MyPlate icon is composed of a plate divided into 4 sections: fruits, vegetables, grains, and protein. A dairy section is off the plate to the side. The MyPlate graphic is positioned on a placemat with the website ChooseMyPlate.gov written underneath. The 5 sections of MyPlate are clickable and go to food group subpages.    

Winter Schedule
(subject to change; be sure to verify with your teacher)

We will have having fitness days 2 or 3 days a week with different activities intermingled between those days. Fitness days will be concentrating on increasing student's cardiovascular levels.

Activities for 5th/6th grade will  include: cone handball, hula hoop handball, volley tennis, sport stations, and a few others that we will continued while in the gymnasium.

7th/8th graders are back in PE for the 3rd nine weeks. Fitness will be the main focus, but handball, hockey, and volley tennis will be the game day activities.
