Dear Park Shore Families,
We are having lots of fun in gym! We are enjoying being outside even on the brisk days.
We begin each class singing our welcome song and it’s so sweet that even your toddler’s already know the words and are excited to show me their stretches. There are lots of smiles in gym!
Everything that we do includes practicing listening skills, patience, color matching, teamwork and more.
We had a blast playing kickball and running the bases while playing “What Time is it Mr. Fox”. I introduced a “Shark” game last week that involves running and listening and lots of laughing.
There is lots of fun teaching and reinforcing just simple throwing and catching with different size balls that we will do all year.
We played a game when the music is on, students move throughout the gym either running, skipping or galloping. When the music stops, each student goes to a poly spot, picks up the beanbag, reads the number on the poly spot and does that many throws/catches to self. When finished they put the beanbag back and stand with hands on their hips until music starts again.
As long as the weather holds up we will continue to have gym outside, please remember to send your loved one to school with a light jacket and sneakers for fun and safety.
Thank you-
Miss Jackie Gym
