Muscle of the Month

This week in P.E. we started to teach a new muscle to our 1st through 5th grade students.  Our muscle this month is the abdominals.  These are your stomach muscles and we do sit-ups every P.E. class to make them stronger!  You can help your child with their sit-ups by holding their ankles and timing them for 1 minute to see how many they can do.  This will help them to get ready for their fitness test!

Muscle of the Month!

January’s muscle of the month is the TRICEP muscle.  Braden and Drakke from 1st grade Taber’s class are showing where the tricep muscle is located.  So we now have abdominals muscles, bicep muscles and now tricep muscles.  Keep checking with your child/children to see if they can show you where each muscle is located.

G.T.’s P.E. Muscle of the Month!

This year we are going to be learning some of the major muscles in our bodies and what we can do to make them stronger.  Some months there maybe two, but for the Month of November we are starting with one.  Abdominal muscles are the November muscle of the month.  Ask your child/children where it is and what exercises they can do to make it stronger.  We will do this for 1st-5th grades.
