My name is Miss Young and I am the Physical Education Teacher at Patterson Primary School. I also teach fifth and seventh grade at Highland Middle School. This year in physical education students in grades K-2 will be learning that fitness and being active on a regular basis can be fun. They will also be learning skills throughout the year that can be used and performed outside the gymnasium. We will be covering a lot of topics that relate to the students health and physical well being. Those topics will include:

 

Cooperative/Teamwork Skills

Fitness Testing

Nutrition

Hockey

Lifetime Sports (golf, bowling, frisbee)

Gymnastics

Self Esteem/Self Confidence

 

These are just a few of the topics we will cover during the year. We will also hold a jump-a-thon in February and a Field Day at the end of the school year.
