Here’s what’s happening in health & PE!
In PE, we are excited to bring back the Kids Heart Challenge (formerly Jump Rope for Heart)! Students are raising money for the American Heart Association and bringing awareness to heart disease and stroke. All students will be participating in a “jump day” during their PE class in February! We have also been busy working on our sports skills! We just recently wrapped up our basketball unit and are moving into hockey! We have been so impressed with the athletic talent of our Bancroft students!
In health class, we have been focusing on Personal Health. We have learned about germs and hand washing, teeth, feelings/emotions, friendships, sleep, exercise and the body systems! We even had our school dental hygienist come in as a guest speaker! She even brought toothbrushes! We also participate in a mindful moment each class. Students are really looking forward to Spring for our next Mileage Club session!
