PHYSICAL EDUCATION 2013-2014

 

 

Hello and welcome back to the Physical Education blog.  I will be keeping in touch periodically to let you know the skills, and tests that the children will be working on throughout each marking period.  I hope that will give everyone a heads up on what to practice with their children.

 

 

We have finished soccer skills, drills, and games.  We also ran/walked the mile at the end of September.  The motor skills that have been worked on are leap, walking at various speeds, and introduction to hop, jump, skip, and gallop. We have also worked on overhead throw and catch.

 

 

Aerobic fitness has been a goal for us this year.  Please help your child keep the pace with fitness and skills by trying these ideas.

 

Walk for 30 min., or more.

 

Jog a mile.

 

Ride your bike.

 

Play catch.

 

Leap over low objects on a run around the yard.

 

Pass a soccer ball to each other.( foot dribble, instep kick)

 

 

Anyway you move, you will improve.

 

Next Hedke Fitness test for 3-5 graders is curl-ups for 1 min.

 

 

Have fun!
