Floor Hockey

This week's unit is floor hockey in the Crisp Gym. Classes will be introduced to hockey fundamentals and skills appropriate for each grade level. Skills will include proper grip, dribbling, passing, trapping and small games. Safety is always a concern, so we use molded foam hockey sticks and safe training style pucks. We look forward to a great week ahead and Friday's spook-tacular Fall Festival.

Time to S.N.A.G.!

Students will participate in the S.N.A.G. golf program this week in Coach Every’s PE classes. SNAG is an acronym for (Starting New At Golf) it also refers to the Velcro targets and felt tennis balls used for the program. The putters called Rollers are made of plastic and are much larger than a normal putter. The only other club the students will be using is called the Launcher, the equivalent of a pitching wedge but it is much lighter and larger. The unit will consists of putting and chipping lessons for the younger students and our 4^th graders will add on the skills of pitching, the full swing and play out a few holes using the SNAG targets on our field. This unit is always exciting for our students and provides a great introduction to game as well as reinforcing the fundamentals of real golf. This week is sure to be a hole-in-one!

Week of 10/11/10 - 10/14/10

Coach Every’s is so excited that the Rays and Bucs both won big games this weekend. Coach Every and Coach D were both out on last Friday for our big PE conference. We had a great time learning new games and ideas that we are going to use in our classes. We even met the most accomplished female golfer in history, Annika Sorenstam, it was very exciting for both of us. Coach Every’s Kindergarten and First grade classes will be playing loco-motor and fitness games this week. 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade classes will play tee ball and softball. Go Rays!!!!!!!
