All classes will be learning a personal/social skill for this marking period. This will be part of their sportsmanship grade. The Kindergarten-3rd grades will learn about following directions and the 4th and 5th graders will learn and write in their journals about self control.

This week, my 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade classes will continue to play my sideline soccer game in the gym during both of their classes.  The 1st and 2nd grade classes will start my hula hoop unit, and the kindergarten classes will continue the unit this week.  During the unit they learn and practice multiple ways that they can use the hula hoop to stretch, balance, and exercise.

I will plan to have stations with all of my classes next week.  During the stations, I will assess all of the students on their object control skill for this marking period, which is the instep kick.  The Kindergarten-2nd grade classes will also get assessed on their locomotor skill for this marking period, which is the hop for kindergarten/1st grade and the gallop for 2nd grade.
