Welcome to the 4th Marking Period – the last marking period of the school year! The marking period where we will finally be able to have P.E. Class outdoors! We will be working on a variety of skills in each grade:
K – 2: We will be working on skipping and throwing and with throwing also comes catching. Compassion is the Personal/Social Characteristic of the marking period.
3rd: Throwing and catching are the main skills we will be working on, plus a little batting. Compassion is also the Personal/Social Characteristic for this grade.
4th and 5th: Batting is the main skill in these grades, along with throwing and catching. Sit ups will be practiced every gym day in order to strengthen each student’s core muscles. Constructive Competition, which another word for Good Sportsmanship is the Personal Social Characteristic for these grades.
What would the 4th marking period be without kick ball? This is a great game for reviewing kicking and catching skills and for learning the rules of baseball. 4th and 5th grade will also be playing some whiffle ball.
