What have we been doing in Physical Education Class?

We are in the middle of playing Soccer! What a fun fall sport to play. The students are learning about teamwork and sportsmanship. How can they contribute to their team and be a positive player?! Are they passing the ball rather than shooting it all the time? Are they trying new positions?  At the end of every game they are shaking hands with their opponents to show good sportsmanship.

We will soon have playoffs and a championship game along with a consolation game.  The students learn how a tournament works and that the top seeded team gets to play the lowest seed because they "earned" that right. The good news is that every team gets a shot at the championship game! I tell my students that every year a last place team upsets the first place team, so never give up! 

I love seeing my classes come together as a team and have fun at the same time. 

Here a a few pictures of them in action!!!

Pickleball 4th Grade

The forth grade were introduced to Pickleball this year. This is a growing sport that is popping up everywhere. For the most part they are playing with boy/girl partners, which they pick. They are learning to work out of their comfort zone and communicate with each other.  By seventh and eighth grade my students come to class with their partners already picked. The sooner they learn to work comfortably with everyone, the better they will be in school and the work environment later on in life. Who knew all the life skills they are learning in Physical Education Class and they don't even know it!!!! Enjoy the pictures below...

We are wrapping up Pickleball this week in Physical Education Class!! This is the upcoming sport! They now offer it in Radnor Township. We have played mixed doubles which means boys and girls are partners. Some feel weird at first but then get into a groove and don't really think about it after the first week. Yes, I am working on the middle school awkwardness!  It is great seeing them work together! They have played really well and I have seen much improvement. Please enjoy some photos below...
