Upcoming Units
Team Building
Fitness Testing
Kicking
Muscles
Throwing
As we start off another great year in P.E. we will be working together on Team Building
activities. Students will have an opportunity to earn Fitness Awards in 2nd-4th grade for Fitness Testing. We will have a Kicking and Throwing unit to focus on proper form and
incorporate skills into games. We will learn about the muscles in our bodies. Students will be able to identify 8-12 muscles. We will also learn how to work the individual muscles through different activities. Students will be
assessed on each of their units by written, oral, or observable assessments.

Pe Events
3rd and 4th grade will have study guides sent home for Bones,
Muscles, Circulatory System, and Nutrition.
The first study guide will be sent home with the 3rd and 4th graders towards the middle of September.
Hope everyone has a great start to the school year. PE event dates can be found on my website

Jones Elementary was named School of the Year for Jump Rope for Heart! We will be receiving an award this fall!

Pe Shoes
Students must change their shoes for physical education class. If not, they cannot participate that day and will lose their participation points. It is important for us to keep the floor clean. Gym shoes for indoor physical education classes are required. Indoor gym shoes must be clean and stay at school. Gym shoes worn to school can be worn outside, but not inside.
