It is almost time for the 2014/2015 school year! I hope you soaked up as much sunshine as possible this summer, and took advantage of chances to be active! I spent a lot of my summer outside enjoying the beautiful Michigan weather.
With the school year approaching I hope you are excited about P.E. Class this year. I am!

A note to all of the students...don't forget to have your tennis shoes with you at all times! If a child does not wear tennis shoes, they might sit out of the activity. Also, this will affect the student's progress report marks. I do have a few spare shoes in the gym, but being responsible and wearing gym shoes to class is an expectation. I also expect students to be prepared when they arrive to the gym. This means that if a younger student has trouble tying their shoes, their gym shoes should probably be slip-ons or velcro. This also means that shoes should be cleaned off and not muddy. While students do not need to have separate shoes for the gym, I have found one of the easiest ways to assist students with this policy is to keep a pair of gym shoes in their locker. Shoes must cover the entire foot and no elevated back heel. This is for their own safety.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks!
