Physical Education
Elementary Physical Education Curriculum Guides
Students will learn different locomotor skills (walking, skipping, galloping, running, jumping, sliding). Students will practice psychomotor skills (kicking, throwing and catching, dribbling, striking, and fitness/yoga). Students are expected to be active in our classes and experience Physical Education in a new, different way that will bring them joy in being physically active.
