iPads in PE


The 8th grade students used the Heart Rate Recovery App with the iPads in PE!  As a class, we decided the camera didn’t give us accurate readings of our heart rates so we would manually find it and tap the screen.  They took their resting heart rate before working out and again during the HopSports workout.  It was fun trying out the new iPads!

Just Dance!

Mrs. Jewkes came to the gym once again this year to teach us dance.  We were so excited because she came in for the whole week to teach us swing and the fox trot.  Our dancing skills improved greatly during the week and you might see some students on Dancing with the Stars next season.  Thanks for more great dance lessons this year Mrs. Jewkes!

Roller Skates!

In October we had the roller skates back again for almost 2 weeks!  We got out the disco ball, practiced free skating, played hockey and tried other pe games on our skates.  The 8th graders even got to stroll down the hallways.  This is always one of our favorite activities of the year!

Team Building at the Ridge

The 8th grade class took their yearly trip to the The Ridge team building course in Lake Forest.  We had a day full of team challenges, a lunch break at Jimmy John's and Robek's and we finished with the much anticipated Flying Squirrel.  This field trip was a great experience for everyone!
