At Salem Wood Elementary we serve approximately 400 student in grade kindergarten though fifth. At our school, we have amazing students who love to learn and laugh together.
Our goal is to inspire students, in person or virtually, to become better movers.
We strive provide opportunities to experience a variety physical activities both at the school, in our virtual classroom, and at home. Many of our students already enjoy being physical active but we are committed to providing experiences to help every student find at least one physical activity that will keep them active into adulthood.
My Project
We believe that it is our job as physical educators to create passion in students for lifelong physical fitness through education, applications, and fun. We want to inspire students to become better movers and be active both inside and outside of the classroom to ensure lifelong fitness. We intend to challenge students to enhance their skills and to encourage them to remain physically active into adulthood. But above all, we want to be a part of giving your students the skills and resources needed to succeed in all aspects of their lives and grow into productive members of society.
Now, more than ever, it is important for our students to move their bodies.
With the start of this year being primarily distance learning and transitioning into a hybrid model it means our students are spending more time in front of a screen and less time moving.
That is where this project comes in! We are here to promote physical activity that can be done at home to reach a goal of 60 minutes per day. Our goal of Virtual Field Day is to continue our work of get students moving. This year may look a little different but we are still working hard to provide fun student center lessons that they can do in the comfort of their own space at a time that is convenient for them. This project would allow us to send some basic items home to every student to participate in field day.
