Physical education classes are an opportunity for students to develop physical skills and healthy habits that will last a life time. Classes will include basic skills, fitness activities, and cooperative games. The structure of each lesson will include a warm up activity, core instruction, and a closing activity or game. Our overarching goal is to learn new skills in a safe and fund environment.
     The curriculum for the primary grades will focus on the introduction of basic skills and low organizational games. In third grade we will begin to introduce more cooperative and team building games that involve strategies. The intermediate grades will continue to reinforce basic skills through cooperative and competitive games, focusing on strategies and problem solving.
     The following are the highlights of the K-6 physical education curriculum: locomotor/non-locomotor skills, manipulative skills, cooperative games, team skills, gymnastics/tumbling, fitness and health, and dance/rhythms.
