December is Here

With much anticipation from our JMB students, our Gymnastics Unit will start after Thanksgiving break. We will be working on a variety of skills, such as: balancing, traveling, transferring weight (i.e. cartwheels, hand stands), stretching, jumping and landing. Through this unit there will be a few safety concerns. We ask that students wear appropriate clothing for PE days. Clothes should be loose fitting so that it is easy for students to move around. We also ask that each student wear clean socks in order to protect their feet and our equipment.

Thank you for the wonderful participation at the beginning of the year with bringing in photos!! Please remember that we will be collecting any photographs you would like to share of our JMB students being physically active outside of school all year long. As our students participate in sports at the recreation department, dance lessons, playing outside or at home we would like to celebrate their active lifestyle by posting their pictures up outside of the gym. Being physically active increases our chances to live a healthy and long life! Let’s CELEBRATE with pictures!
