Building Character and Team Colors


Building a Strong Character House
 
Week two complete!  This week, students discussed how we can build good character in Physical Education.  We will:
  • Show respect to our self and others
  • Be responsible with equipment and wear tennis shoes everyday
  • Always be honest by telling the truth
  • Use self control of our bodies while listening  

2nd Grade Sitting in Team Rows
Every trimester, students get placed on one of four team colors; blue, red, yellow, or green.  These team colors are used for organizing students into groups for individual, partner, and team skills and games.  Students are responsible for remembering their team color each class.  It is also a great way for students to build teamwork and friendships. 
 

 
Airplane Balance with Kindergarten

 During the week we practiced balancing, strength exercises, and played the tag game Everybody Is It.  During this game, students did 3 star jumps yelling "I'm a Star!"  in their team's activity zone to re-enter the game.  This is a great lead up activity to our first unit that we will begin next week, dodging and fleeing. 



I'm a Star!
