Units of Activity for the 2017-2018 school year
Posted by Allison Smart on 9/19/2017Welcome to the 2017/18 school year! For those who are curious, here is a list of the units we will cover this school year. Only having each class for an hour a week, I am limited on the number of lessons and units that can be covered in a year. Some units we do every school year, some units will be covered every other year. Up for this year:
- Fitness Testing (in September and April for grades 3-5 only)
- Speed Stacking
- Pillo polo (our version of floor hockey)
- Basketball
- Jump Rope/Jump Rope for Heart
- Step Aerobics
- Heart Adventure Course
- Net/Racket Activities
- I Heart Encore week (something special in February!)
- Plus, a variety of low organized games thorughout the year to focus on: teamwork, following directions, good sportsmanship, and having fun!

Fall Fun
Posted by Allison Smart on 11/8/2016 6:00:00 AMIn November all studetns will be learning about bowling. We will be turning the gym into "Indian Prairie Lanes" and will even be having a disco bowling day. Some of the big ideas of this unit include: putting the correct fingers in the holes, keeping the ball on top of their hand, bending their knees, and stepping in opposition.
