Week #1

The game begins in 3,2,1.....this week students at Union Valley were contestants on "Minute to Win It" (PE version). Various challenges included keeping a balloon up in the air, knocking down dominoes with a marble put through a pool noodle, moving balls with a hockey stick into a hoop, bouncing balls and having a partner catch them into a bucket and hiking a ball into a hula hoop. Students worked together to accomplish these tasks in a one minute time period.







Kindergarten students joined us this week!! We are excited to have them part of U.V. In P.E. we are learning how to start an activity and how to stop when Mrs. Siemens says 3,2,1 or if the music stops. Of course we are having fun moving as we practice! Ask your student what 3,2,1 means!
