Fit Friday, September 16, 2016

It was wonderful to see all the parents and families at our first parent information night. Our focus during physical education was fitness and fun this Friday. We warmed up with a game of “V.I.P” tag to develop cooperation and the physical movements focused on were sliding and changing direction. Our main activity was “Beat the Ball”. This involved catching, throwing and running skills. We continue to practice for the Terry Fox run, which will be held at the end of September. We finally learned about Milo’s final adventure in his pursuit for perfection. It was interesting to hear about how he solved his challenges and his understanding of perfection. Today was early dismissal. For Monday please bring a book to read. Students were also asked to collect visuals (from the internet, or copies of photos that can be used in a class assignment on Who am I?) The categories include transportation (favourite or most unique way they have travelled), traditional food or food from a festival or celebration that is important to the student and their family (can be a visual or a recipe), clothing (traditional, wore at a festival/celebration), interests and hobbies, language, country, sports, festivals/celebrations, shelters (where do you live) and any other area of interests. Students can also draw, use pictures or words to represent ideas. Have a wonderful weekend!
