SCAVENGER HUNTS!!

SCAVENGER HUNTS

I've done a couple of scavenger hunts with my own kids ("What up Mags and Lina!" - they'll love that btw!") Maybe you have already done some too! But if you're looking for additional suggestions - inside and outside the house - check out the links below!

Today's weather (Tuesday) was sooooo awesome! I mowed my grass (finally!), pulled some weeds, kicked a soccer ball around a while, and we joined my nieces on their TikTok challenge to walk a marathon - not the whole thing but approximately 2 miles!! I hope good weather comes back soon to stay so we can keep getting outside for physical activities!!
Miss you guys (I know I say that every post but IT'S SO TRUE!)

DISTANCE LEARNING "P.E. STYLE" INTRO

DISTANCE LEARNING “P.E. STYLE” Hi everyone! This is quite the unexpected way to be "doing" PE to say the least! If you are like me, you might be saying something like "Hey, we can easily find ways to stay active for at least 60 minutes a day!" or "We've already included a physical activity/exercise time into our new daily routine." or "Oh no, is this just one more paper we need to file, email, or keep track of until this is over!?"😊 NEVER FEAR! At this point, there will be no reporting (again, at this point. That could change...) This is a new way of teaching for me just like its a new way of learning for your families. We're in this together and I'm sure we'll be evolving and adjusting together! I'm sure many of you have already been busy with daily activity inside or outdoors - hopefully the temperatures will start to climb so that will be able to continue! While most of us can find ways to stay on top of re...

LET'S START THE SCHOOL YEAR!

WELCOME TO PYSICAL EDUCATION ZEELAND CHRISTIAN SCHOOL 2020-2021 MS. MILLER Happy beginning of the school year everyone! It feels like I haven't seen you since forever ago! I hope everyone had a great (albeit a different type of) summer! I'm looking forward to this school year for a lot of different reasons, but the biggest reason of all is to get to work with the best students in the world in grades Kindergarten all the way to 8th!!  Some things will be different this year for PE class. Here are a few: PE will be outside and down the hill as long as the weather permits (pray for comfortable weather!). If it's raining, too cold, etc. we will meet in the gym and participate in our classes safely. Since we are outside, please wear shoes that can get a little wet, dirty, etc. Middle school students do not need to change into "PE clothes" at this time so dress accordingly for activity (note the info on shoes mentioned above...) Middle school students bring masks just i...
