It was a beautiful afternoon to explore our recess stations. So many fun choices! Building, drawing, a picnic, dancing and even a musical parade!

Talked about creating “just right” challenges for the start of our overhand throwing unit today. We had our students chose different objects to throw and targets to throw at to change the difficulty. Excited to implement #meaningfulPE into our PE program.

A student gave me homework. Like I don't have enough to do hahahaha!
But as always....if they can teach the content, then they have understanding of the concept. So proud.
