Welcome back!
Welcome back! I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas break. This month in P.E, we are going to continue our focus on Basketball with our 3rd - 8th graders. We will work on lay ups, passing, dribbling, and free throws. We will play small mini games to start putting the fundamentals all together. Our younger students started today learning about and practicing right side lay ups. We will practice again tomorrow and then introduce the left side lay ups.
The students earn their grade in class by participation, sportsmanship, and conduct. Their athletic ability does not factor their grade. It is more important to learn how to persevere through challenges than it is to make a free throw. And athletes need to learn how to be good leaders, not just how to win a game.
Please come back and visit this page for pictures of the students. Im not a professional photographer but I do luck out sometimes in capturing some pretty good action shots!
