The school year is off to a great start. Every year our students begin
Physical Education with soccer. During
this unit students are able to practice skills and participate in lead up games. Our lead up games and activities allow
students to use different skills that will be used in a game of soccer. Students have been practicing foot dribble,
passing, kicking, and goal tending.
Fifth and sixth graders will have the opportunity to create
teams. I always find it amusing to see
the names that the students come up with for their teams. The teams will choose captains and will
participate in a tournament.
Fourth graders do not compete in a tournament, but they will
play in soccer games.
The character word that will be the emphasis of our
tournament will be
sportsmanship.
As always I ask that the
students bring proper shoes for being active.
This allows them to be safe during activity.
