Physical Education Chatter!!!!

Another report card sent home for you to review. We hope that you will look at the Physical Education section and review it with your child in terms of how they did this term. During this period we accomplished the following: we completed the 100th day activity which was comprised of 12 fun filled stations, each with their own challenge; numerous games stressing sportsmanship, gamesmanship, throwing and some dancing as well (cha cha slide, macarena, chicken dance, and Mexican hat dance). Mission Impossible was a big week in which 12 different challenges were set up for the kids to accomplish as "secret agents".
Jump Rope for Heart was the main feature of our efforts this month. Children learned about the meaning of helping to raise money for the Heart Fund cause, while having fun and earning some rewards for their efforts. The whole school benefitted by the talk and by the fun week of activities that the children participated in during their physical education time. The children did a commendable job raising an amazing amount of money:

$4174 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Given the nature of this economy, it is heart warming to see that people will do their best and contribute when they can to a cause that is dear to their heart. Thanks to everyone, all of those dollar donations really added up which propelled us up to reach this level of fundraising, our sincere thanks.
We all look forward to the final weeks of school as the children prepare for and participate in all of the special activities approaching! Enjoy every day of their journey through life as it all passes much too quickly!

Best Wishes from the staff!
