November News

Parent Survey

Thank you, thank you, thank you all for doing such a great job getting those rock wall permission slips back in! I cannot believe we will be starting the next quarter this month. I will be available all day during conference hours on November 8th (1:30-6:30) , you are more than welcome to schedule a specific time (email is the best way to contact me), or just stop in! I am excited to announce we were fortunate enough to be a recipient of the Kiwanis generosity and we received a brand new class set of scooter hockey sticks that we will be putting to good use in the upcoming months! We appreciate it! As a reminder, I am having lots of sweatshirts/jackets left in the gym at the end of the day, if your child may be guilty of this, I would check the lost and found... It’s getting pretty full!

The National Center for Safe Routes to school wants to know what factors affect whether your student walks or bikes to school at Emerald Elementary. We were granted snowshoes and pedal bikes for the students to use in their classrooms.

2. Surveys may be completed at parent teacher conferences too!
Thank you for helping support our Emerald Explorers!

Monthly Fitness Calendar

We will be starting monthly fitness calendars. Students will do the exercise/activity each day and put their initials in that day and parents will sign at the end of the month stating they did the days they initialed. Directions are attached. I cannot wait to see how many active kids we have at Emerald outside of school. This is optional activity but encouraged.

Kdg-2nd Graders

November is a fun month for the younger students. We will be starting out with volleying a variety of objects (balloons, scarfs, trainers etc.) focusing on teamwork and cooperation. They will then be working on hand dribble, and ball handling skills. We are going to continue to improve on our locomotor and non locomotor movements and ability to safely move around in space.

The students did a phenomenal job with our soccer and kickball units this past month! They seemed to learn a great deal and have fun too! This month they can be looking forward to the skill development needed in both volleyball and basketball! In volleyball, we will be working on basic skills such as passing, setting and serving with modified games towards the end of the unit. In basketball, we will be focusing on the BEEF format for shooting, dribbling, and passing. BEEF stands for balance, eyes, elbow, and follow through and is an acronym that helps them remember the proper shooting form!
