WEEK 28 & 29: FCAT WEEKS / WALKATHON


Very few classes will be coming to physical education class during the two weeks of FCAT testing. Most of the classes will actually be in the afternoon, which are K-1-2 classes. We will be doing "chasing, fleeing, and dodging" games with students. Students will play "Flag Tag", "Open Flag Tag", "Collection Flag Tag", "Hill Dill", and "Cross the Ocean". We will emphasize safety and fun. Students will learn more about their spatial awareness and body awareness.
On Friday, March 21, our school will have a Walkathon to benefit Tyler's Hope, an organization to find a cure for distonia. The organization was named after a 4th grade student in our school who has distonia. Students collect pledges per lap and we will run/walk for 35 to 40 minutes with each group of students!
