In addition to working together will a group of partners, and catching and bouncing; students are also able to develop problem solving skills and spend more time playing rather than arguing. After all, students learn the best when they are enjoying a game!

Kindergarten

As we finish up this first month of school, kindergarten students have done a great job practicing various brain gyms, warm ups, and animal walks. Even though kindergarten does not come to gym every day, they are able demonstrate everything that they have learned and continue to practice safety and cooperation.

-Please remember to send gym shoes with your child if they do not wear them to school. It makes it very difficult for them to participate in boots, crocs, flip flops, etc. Thank you!
