Welcome Back Oak Grovers!
I hope that you're as excited as I am to be back to school for another active year in PE. I'm also curious about how you spent your summer especially the ways you chose to be physical!
This school year we'll make sure that we participate in old favorites as well as learn some new exercise routines and games.
Just a reminder to my "old" friends and to inform my "new" friends:
Oak Grove has PE on Tuesdays and Thursdays so please come to school ready for activity by wearing comfortable, easy to move in clothes and shoes.
See you soon,
Mrs. Lane

Our recent events in the gym are:
EXERCISE ROUTINE: Our exercise routine was called RECAP and it was made up of components from most of our previous exercise routines.
LESSON FOCUS: For three weeks we worked on beach ball skills such as the forearm pass and sets.
GAME: We participated in 3 versions of KEEP IT UP, TEAM CIRCLE KEEP IT UP and then we tried a mini 4 vs 4 beach ball.
To end our year we'll have a focus on ENDURANCE by going outside and using our playground "track". Each class students will spend 15 minutes trying to earn as many sticks they can by trying to get around the track as quickly as possible. We'll monitor progress on a chart and strive to either meet or beat our number each class.
After that we'll play some new tag games and some old favorites.
Please enjoy the last days of spring and plan on some summer fun/exercise in the sun:)

PE Update
We've been really busy in the gym the last 6 weeks! We had a new exercise routine called "Jump Bands" that had the students following a jumping course for their cardiovascular exercise and performing their core muscle exercises.
Our lesson focus was low level gymnastics. The first week students were introduced to some basic tumbling and balancing skills. From there each week we added a new piece of gymnastic equipment to use. Students were able to try their skills on the inclined mat, a low level balance beam and a training vault. Gymnastic skills seemed to be a hit with novices and "old pros".
Our games this month included "Across the Pond" and "In the Pond"
This last week before vacation sees us exercising and then having some fun for all the hard work we've done since last vacation!
Enjoy the spring weather,

Physical Education for February 2013
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
We've been really busy in the gym this month. Listed below are the 3 parts of our PE class and what we've been doing during them. I tend to leave it vague in the hope that it will create a conversation at the supper table. Please ask your student "What's going on it PE?"
Exercise Routine: 6lb Bars
Lesson Focus: Skills with Scoops
Game Time: Criss Cross
I'm really excited that our students have been out on Tuesdays enjoying winter sports. Hopefully each student will find a winter activity to stick with for life long exercise!
Please feel free to contact me with questions and concerns
