Physical Education

The following is a short summary of Mme Muzika's Physical Education program:

Physical Education

During this past term we have covered the following concepts:

Personal Space – We have worked on movement in our own personal space.

Locomotor Movement – We have learned different locomotor movements such as walking, running, skipping, galloping, hopping, jumping, shuffling, and leaping.  We have worked on these movements at different levels as well as changing directions. These movements have been taught in general space in the gymnasium. Students have also worked on ways to avoid and dodge each other while performing these movements.

Manipulative Skills—So far this term, we have been working on throwing, catching, and hand dribbling. 

Fitness – We have begun to incorporate more emphasis on fitness activities on a daily basis. Strength and endurance have been emphasized at this time. 

Games – The students have been taught a select few games this term. The emphasis has been on participation and sportsmanship.
