Welcome Back

I truly hope you all had a wonderful summer vacation. I feel recharged and excited for another great year at Shorecrest and hope you feel the same. I will be co-teaching Alpha and JK this year along with Coach Pope and Coach Cameron. Grades K-4 with be working primarily with one coach per trimester. My classes are Conroy, Owen, McKenzie, LaDuke and the boys from Telemachos and Hughes. This week will be spent working on team building skills, the rock wall, routines and getting PE uniforms and locker room procedures taken care of for our fourth graders. Kindergarten and First grade students will be taught a diverse curriculum with strong foundations on loco-motor skills, sending (throwing, kicking, hitting etc.), receiving (catching) and fitness skills. They will also participate in modified versions of our sport units this trimester. Students in grades 2-4 will participate in the Presidential Fitness Challenge and units of kickball, four square, lacrosse, and golf this trimester, just to name a few. I am very much looking forward to the year ahead and working with such wonderful students and families.

Fantastic year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so very proud of all my students and their accomplishments this school year. It has been a wonderful group of students to teach and get to know. I can't believe that the entire year has passed and we are now about to begin what is sure to be a super summer vacation. This week will be spent revisiting fun games and reflecting on our busy and exciting year in physical education. I truly hope you and your families have a safe, active and fun summer vacation. See you all next year!!!!!!!!

There are so many exciting events taking place all over the Shorecrest campus. The Kindergarten show was amazing and I am very excited to see the First grade show as well. Coach Every's classes will begin our golf unit. We will focus primarily on the fundamentals of putting and chipping. Proper grip, stance, ball position and aim are just some of the skills taught throughout the week. We use the S.N.A.G. golf program. The system consists of over-sized plastic golf clubs, tennis-type balls and Velcro targets. It provides a great introduction to golf and good practice for more advanced golfers.
