Start Of The New Year

We are off and running in PE to start off another great year here in Goffstown! The first graders are spending these first few weeks working on gross motor skills (running, hopping, galloping, etc.). They are doing this through a variety of games and activities that work on all of these different skills. Through these activities they are also learning about spacial awareness and personal space. The second through fourth graders are working on cooperative games and trying to build a strong sense of community in their classroom. The first cooperative game was called toxic waste transfer. This was a great activity that used a lot of imagination and the students had a blast with it! Remember to have your students wear or bring sneakers on PE days!
