The 2009-2010 school year is in full swing. I have to say that all of the students are doing well and working hard in P. E. so far. 

As the days grow shorter, and the weather turns colder we need to remember to stay as active a possible. It will become difficult to go outside and ride our bikes, run, or even play with friends as the weather turns. So, in all of the physical education classes we will be running at the beginning of class to help keep our bodies in shape. The 1st grade through 6th grade classes will even be building up to make it into the 5 Minute Run Club! (ask your child about it, we will be discussing it in the next few weeks) 

Some things you can do to stay active are: Find an indoor play area to run and play. Put on an exercise video to follow with your child. Go sledding, skiing, or any other outdoor snow activity. Put on warm clothes and hike at a park. Do sit-ups and push-ups every night with your child.
