Volleyball Continues in Physical Educaiton Classes!


Our Physical Education classes are continuing to work on "Volleyball" skills. Students participate in many games that involve their volleyball skills. Our goal is to get them familiar with the game and the basic strategies involved. Many classes play a game of "Newcomb" which is similar to volleyball, but participants are allowed to catch the ball or hit it when the ball comes to them. This is a great way to introduce them to volleyball. The students really enjoy when we cover the net so you cannot see the other side. This makes sure everyone pays attention, because you have no idea where the ball is coming from.


4th and 5th grade students are working on the Mental Health section of the Learn to Be Healthy website: Parents can follow along with the students assignments by viewing the website. This is an excellent resource that we use in all of our Family Life Classes. You may sign-up for the website for free and participate in the interactive web pages. The students really enjoy the website and the information is frequently updated.
