Rivendell Physical Education

Preschool PE

by

I’m pleased to announce that we’ll be adding the Rivendell Preschool to our PE schedule for the 2012-13 year. Each preschool class will have PE twice a week for 20-30 minutes.  I plan to use similar concepts and activities as I do for my Kinder Kickers soccer program, a very successful and highly regarded preschooler program I run at The Edge Sports Center.

We will explore physical movement, large motor skills, balance, personal space and working in a group environment, all in a non-competitive and fun way.

I’m excited and looking forward to working with the preschool classes this year!

Summer Olympics is Underway

by

I hope everyone is watching and enjoying the Olympics—competition by some of the finest athletes in the world!  This fall, in conjunction with the students’ topic work on Ancient Greece, we plan to hold our own Olympic competition. Running, jumping, throwing, “wrestling” and even chariot racing will be among the events.  See you all at the Rivendell Olympic Games!

Have a Great Summer

I hope everyone has a great—and active!—summer.  Get out of the house and off the couch.  Ride your bike, go for a walk, go swimming, play soccer or baseball, go climbing or camping, take a yoga class, learn a new sport!  There are lots of fantastic activities available so I hope you take advantage of them.  Stop reading this on your computer and go play!  See you all in the fall.
