Juggling in Physical Education

1/17/2025 1:32 pm

All students in grades K-5 have been participating in juggling the last 10 days of school. Many of our students LOVE this unit and want to keep working on their skills at home! You can purchase, scarves, balls, rings and even soft clubs on Amazon or this PE catalog site!

Juggling improves eye hand coordination, crossing the midline, balance, rhythm and timing and visual tracking - which can help improve reading and math skills! Juggling is a self-paced activity that requires little space and equipment and can help break up those long winter days!

 

Thank You to the PE Teachers for a Class!

Thank you to all of the families that supported our fall fundraiser and chose "PE Teacher for a Class."
The students enjoyed themselves and loved being able to choose the activity and direct their fellow students! We appreciate all the families that support Physical Education and our fundraisers to give our students the best opportunities. Some students took their roles very seriously, like "Coach Lasso" below!
