"PE Shorts" Tuesday 9/23/2014

As the school year carries on we have completed soccer skills in 6th grade PE and are now moving on with Ultimate Frisbee. Soccer was fun and I have a lot of funny pictures of all the kids practicing soccer headers, just like Aiden below. Each class starts with a warm up activity such as juggling (practice at home with your kids), Spikeball, or Atom Ball. In frisbee we are working on a lot of the fundamentals of throwing and catching before we start games. Yesterday we learned how to throw a backhand and next class we will learn a forehand or "flick" throw.   We will continue going outside when the weather remains nice enough (frisbee is really difficult in the wind!).
