Physical Education Class for the Week of Feb 26th-March 2nd

This week, my 3rd-5th grade classes will start playing volleyball games.  I will start by going over the rules and modeling the game to each class, before having them play.  The 3rd grade classes will have modified rules and they will play with a beach ball.  The 4th and 5th grade classes will play with a few minor modifications and will play with the normal volleyball that is recommended for their age.  They will all play 3 games that will be 7-8 minutes long each class.

The 1st and 2nd grade classes will continue to learn and practice volleyball skills this week.  They will also practice catching and sliding during the class.

The Kindergarten classes will start my parachute unit this week.  I will have them learn and practice a variety of activities and games the next two weeks using the parachute.  The classes will also practice sliding with and without the parachute.
