Physical Education Welcome back to another great year at George Seitz Elementary School! It is my goal this year to help assist and boost every child’s personal health goal- whether it is physical, mental, or social. I plan to do this by helping each child figure out what their personal goals are, how they can reach them, teach them how to keep track of their progress, and especially, how to reward themselves once they have met their goal! As parents, you can help me by promoting family activities that you enjoy doing with each of your children. Reinforcing that exercise, reading, and friendly social events are some of the best way to increase their success in everything they do! So please, do not hesitate to get out there and walk after dinner with your family, cheer your child on at sporting events, monitor friendships with others, and most of all have fun with each other! By incorporating strong family values and learning challenging curriculum your child’s long-term goals are easily obtainable. Please feel free to contact me if you ever feel the need! I welcome Parent-Teacher relationships and encourage parents to join us in class. If anyone you know has a special talent that would be willing to share with my class, please contact me! I love guest speakers and so do the kids, but please just contact me ahead of time! THIS YEAR’S PE SCHEDULE
The BIG SHOE Award- This year I have incorporated the BIG SHOE Award! If every child in his/her class wears their PE shoes on their PE day, they earn a star towards displaying the BIG SHOE in their classroom for a month. I will tally up all the stars after each month. At the end of the year, the class who displayed the BIG SHOE the most, will earn a very special prize! I hope to see the BIG SHOE in your classroom soon! A very special thank you goes out to Mr. Curtiss for his kind donation of BIG SHOES!!! The Presidential Fitness Challenge will be held throughout the month of November. Please help your child/children get prepared for this series of tests outside of school. The extra help will really give them a “foot” up! They will be tested in the following areas: Cardiovascular Endurance, Muscular Strength, Muscular Endurance, Speed/ Agility, and Flexibility. These are measured by using the following tests: Either ¼ mile, ½ mile, or mile run (depending on age); curl-ups (per minute), Sit-And-Reach Test, Shuttle Run, and Pull-Ups and/or Flexed-Arm Hang. I am always looking for volunteers to help run the tests! Please let me know if you would like to get involved in this. Thanks for all of your support, Mrs. K |
