🌞Beating the Heat in Elementary PE🥏⛳
With the Florida heat at the beginning of the school year, elementary PE has been finding creative ways to stay active while keeping the intensity a little lower! Students have been learning and practicing three new sports-- bocce, frisbee golf, and traditional golf.
Along the way, students are developing skills such as throwing, aiming, accuracy, distance control, hand-eye coordination, balance, strategy, and patience while learning the rules and etiquette of each activity
Most importantly, these lessons are about more than learning a new sport. We want students to discover physical activities they can enjoy throughout their lives-- activities that can be adapted for different ages, abilities, and seasons.
Staying active doesn't have to mean running laps or playing a competitive sport. Sometimes it means grabbing a frisbee, swinging a golf club, or enjoying a friendly game of bocce with family and friends.
Keep building skills, finding activities you enjoy, and creating a lifelong love of movement! 😎💪🏼
