Dear Parent/Guardian,

On Wednesday, February 15, 2012 students (grades 1 & 2) will be participating in a Jump Rope For Heart event during their regularly scheduled gym class. 

Jump Rope for Heart is a fun event! While encouraging community service, it also is an educational program. Our students will learn jump rope skills while raising money to fund lifesaving research and educational programs. 

Friends and family are welcome to support your child's participation by making contributions. Checks should be made out to American Heart Association. The children receive thank you gifts based on the amount of contributions they collect. The children take pride in their efforts to help this very important cause.

Please support this amazing event! If you have any questions or if you're interested in volunteering at this event, please contact me at 508-627-3316 ext. 304.

Many thanks!!!

Miss Capra

 

 

THE COLD WEATHER IS HERE!!!

 

 

A HELPFUL TIP:

 

Keeping an extra pair of sneakers in the classroom is a great alternative plan in the event you may forget to pack sneakers for gym class. Having an extra pair of sneakers (in school) can be helpful on cold days where students may be wearing boots.


Your child will receive two PE classes each week (lasting 30 minutes). Below you will find a list of classroom schedules. This classroom list is to inform you of when Physical Education Classes will be taking place this year.

 

KM - Tuesday & Wednesday

KS - Wednesday & Friday

1L - Wednesday & Friday

1M - Wednesday & Friday

2F - Monday & Wednesday

2S - Monday & Wednesday


__________________________________________________________________________________

A friendly reminder to all of my K-2 parents. I am asking for your help in hopes that your child will be able to participate (safely) in class. For the safety and well-being of your child, I am asking that all parents send his/her child in with proper footwear for P.E. class. I would like to see sneakers rather than boots, sandals, flip flops, casual shoes, hiking boots, buckle shoes, crocks etc..


Sneakers consist of the following:
Non-marking soles
Laces and/or Velcro (NOT SHOES WITH A SINGLE VELCRO BUCKLE)

Sneakers that fit securely and cover the entire foot

NOTE: Students will not be allowed to participate in PE Class with sandals, boots, flip flops or crocks. :/

 

Here are some additional tips on how to make Physical Education class a success:


1. Long hair should be pulled back (away from your face)
2. Wear clothing that is free for movement purposes (avoid tight constricting clothing)
3. Working together with your classmates
4. Having fun!


Please send in a note if your child is unable to participate in physical activity.


Lessons include:

  • Brief discussion
  • Warm up
  • Unit topic
  • Cool down/discussion
