September 16 - October 28

Complex Team Games - Football / Soccer / Frisbee 


For the next two Physical Education units, students will be taking part in football, soccer, and frisbee activities.  Students will take part in lead up activities for each sport and will eventually take part in small-sided team games against each other.  Students who are not ready for team games will have the option to continue working on lead up skills such as passing or catching while the team games are going on.  Also, two small-sided games may take place at once as well and students will have the option to pick what they like more.  For example, there may be a football game and a soccer game going on at the same time, especially in the bigger classes.  Offering the option of participating in lead up activities and offering a different game option provides differentiation in the lessons.  

All activities in physical education are designed to keep students engaged in fitness activities that promote a healthy lifestyle and life-long participation. 

(IF THE WEATHER DOESN'T PERMIT OR THE IS NOT ENOUGH GYM SPACE FOR A GIVEN ACTIVTY, STUDENTS WILL TAKE PART IN AlLTERNATIVE ACTIVITIES IN THE GYMNASIUM SUCH AS BASKETBALL, WALKING, BADMINTON, DODGEBALL ETC.)

PE GRADES ARE BASED ON PARTICIPATION.  STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE ENGAGED IN ACTIVITY.  SIMPLY JUST CHANGING YOUR CLOTHES DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING FULL CREDIT!!!!!!!

Missed classes are counted as zeros, so make sure classes are being made up!
