GameDay at the School

All students and teachers will be participating in GameDay at the School this week. This is a standards-based physical education program designed for elementary schools. Miss Rachel is training us on how to organize, manage, and teach P.E. specific skills.


Today, students learned basic warm-up and cool down prodecudes and a new game. Our kindergarters learned a game called "Banana Split." First and second graders learned how to play "Minnow Express." Student in grades 3-6 learned "Flag Pull Top Gun."

Students and teachers had fun learning these games and playing them during P.E.!

  2. The GameDay at School program will continue! The program came complete with lesson plans to systematically teach physical education skills - rather than simply playing a game - and all the equipment! This week was an on-site training to teach the staff and the students the basic procedures. Now that everyone has experience with the program, we can have GameDay at School(aka P.E.) every week!
