We used our parachute to get in a little workout and then rest underneath our “tent”! 💪🏼⛺️

We are learning the correct way to bowl and all of our bowling vocabulary! We are also incorporating fractions in our upper grades! Learning lifetime sports at a young age is the key to becoming lifelong movers!

Middle school students visit their research station where they expand what they know about tennis by presenting new information such as top players, top brands, the history of tennis, important vocabulary, or the rules of tennis in the form of a mini-poster! 🎾

Our elementary students show what they know at their writing station this week by labeling the parts of their tennis racket and applying what they know about our vocabulary word, strike. 🎾

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

This week we are learning our basic tennis skills and several new vocabulary words. I am especially impressed with our ball control and hand-eye coordination! 🎾

Last week we applied our frisbee cues (point, cross, step, flick) to game situation and kept our own scores while working in small groups. Frisbee golf was a hit!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

Building on the skills that we learned last week and making our tasks a little bit harder! Today we got to throw our frisbees at virtual, moving targets which were floating sports emojis! 🏀⚾️🎾🏈

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

Here are some of our frisbee stations this week. We practiced using our cues: point, cross, step, and flick. We loved getting to throw at so many different types of targets!

We are comparing and contrasting throwing a frisbee and throwing a ball with our life size Venn diagram at our rest station today!

Middle school has been learning basic volleyball skills including passing, setting, and serving. Now we are applying them in a lead up game called Bound Ball, which is allowing us to apply those skills and preparing us to work our way up to traditional volleyball. 🏐

We have been working on balance with our bodies and with other objects during stations this week! Students have worked in small groups with the responsibility of following written task descriptions, reflecting on their performance of each task, and creating their own challenges!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

Our warm-up this week: Math balancers- Students travel on the lines and solve color-coded math problems when they get to each spot on the floor to find out how many seconds they will balance on the designated foot!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

Using cause/effect, comparing numbers, multiplication, predicting, experimenting, and anatomy in PE all in one day! #academicintegration

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

Change bottle flipping into cone flipping + a little competition + exercise = a fun instant activity that challenges students with a current trend!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

This week we are entering the lab and learning to take our resting and active heart rates. We are predicting and experimenting with different types of activities to see which ones elevate our heart rate the most.

@NorthSidePE1 Thank you so much!!

Some of our other destinations that students could travel to during Scooter Monopoly were skiing vacation, NASCAR vacation, the county fair, the playground, beach vacation, the dance floor, and the watering hole. I love opportunities for student responsibility and student choice!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

During Scooter Monopoly students can choose to spend their money to go to several different destinations around the gym. The dance floor was definitely a hit! They could travel there with friends and could request one song to dance to before returning to the obstacle course!

[South Central PE @SouthCentralPE]

We are learning to keep track of the money that we earn and the money that we spend today in Scooter Monopoly! We are having a blast learning skills that we can use in real life while being active! 💰💵🛴
