Victorious

After practicing frisbee throwing, my victorious students proved hard work pays off. So proud of their determination.

Resilience

Today my students were asked to perform a squat for 10 seconds and as you can see from the video they never gave up. I am so proud of their resilience to complete the task.

Muscles

Identifying the muscles in our body.

Mindfulness

We practice mindfulness in PE by finishing our class with some yoga.

Olympic Torch Relay in PE

In PE today, we celebrated the kick-off of the Olympics by participating in a torch relay race.

Equity in PE

Each student had the tools and opportunity to succeed in this activity . They were given different size balls to choose from to fit the needs of their own abilities.

Empathy Activity in PE

This is a tag game called Helping Hands. When students were tagged, they had to sit down. Once they had one or two students hold their hand/hands they help them get up and go to a special area to do an exercise (10 jumping jacks) then they all went back in the game. After first round we had a discussion about how it felt to be sitting and how it felt to have people run by without helping and then how it felt when people came to help you. Then we played again, and the students were much better at helping others after that discussion. We played several rounds switching out taggers.
