Hockey

This week I am introducing basic Hockey skills (Dribbling, passing and shooting) and letting the students go through stations to work on those skills. It has been fun to see students improve as they go from station to station.

Thanks PTO!


Thanks PTO for getting a Speed Stacks kit for Badger Mountain Elementary. We have been using the Speed Stacks all week in 1st-5th grade classes. The younger students learned a new Speed Stacking game and the older students got to use the mats and timers to see how fast they were at the 3-3-3 stack.

Dance Dance Revolution

This week the 3rd-5th grade students have been playing the Dance Dance Revolution game. DDR is a form of active gaming that helps students match their body movements with the rhythm of the music. We have dance pads and students try to step on different arrows that come across the screen by moving their bodies around the pads. Our school has four metal dance pads that link directly to the Wii gaming system so students can track scores and we have 12 practice pads so partners can practice while watching the screen.

As classes come into P.E this week, I have been giving those interested in purchasing, flyers with instructions on how to order.
