Hello Friends!
It blows my mind that today was the day we were supposed to return to school after what was originally supposed to be a temporary closure. If I had known that we would not be returning to school, I would have let all my students know how much they matter, given out a few hugs, and maybe would have sent you all away with an abundance of "Questions of the Day" to keep you busy during quarantine. I keep thinking about you all and I hope you know that I miss you all just as much as you probably miss your friends and school. I hope you know that all of us teachers want to help and support you during this time. You all matter to us and we all care about each of you. Below is another YouTube channel that you can use for your daily physical activity. If you haven't seen any of these videos, you are really missing out... Dance Fitness Channel #4: The Fitness Marshall - https://www.youtube.com/user/TheFitnessMarshall The Fitness Marshall goes all out and loves to make his dances sassy and sexy. I promise you will have fun and/or be laughing while dancing with the Fitness Marshall. Every time I watch these videos, I end up cracking up at his faces and some of the dance moves. I highly suggest doing some of these dances with family to really get some good laughs.

Hello everyone! I hope you enjoyed a great spring break! I am sure you all enjoyed your vacations to exotic places around the world and that you are all looking super tan. Welcome to our first week of new learning! First thing you should know, is that I sent out an email today that details what the rest of the semester will look like. Please, please, please read it and make sure you understand everything that is changing for this semester. If you have any questions about the email, please feel free to email me whenever if you have questions. I will continue to post different physical activity suggestions on this website for you all if you are getting bored of going on neighborhood walks. We will start using Microsoft Teams for posting your weekly physical activity. I have been told you all have access to Microsoft Teams with your Microsoft 365 accounts so you all should be able to access and see what is posted regularly. Dance Fitness Channel #3: https://www.youtube.com/user/sarahplacencia Sarah Placencia has some awesome videos and playlists. I really like Sarah’s videos and have memorized and taught many of her dances in class before. She has good mix of popular songs and other Zumba songs. She also has some dance toning videos which require light hand weights and focus more on strengthening than cardio. She also has posted various body weight workouts you can do from home as well if you don’t feel like dancing one day. Honestly, this channel is a well rounded channel that allows for a wide range of different workouts. Couch Potato to 5K running program! I am going to include a file at the bottom of this that details out a running program that starts off fairly easy and by the end of the program you should (hopefully) be able to run a 5K. The running program perfectly goes from this week until the last week of school so it would be a cool thing to work towards before summer break. It also provides just simple running workouts if you are just looking for some type of physical activity irregularly.
Hello Patriots!
I hope you are all doing well and surviving another crazy week. Mr. Foote and I are getting a bit stir crazy but are finding ways to stay busy and entertained. This week, we are supposed to have some nice weather so we are looking forward to doing some work outside! Doing yard work outside usually always counts as physical activity depending on the work being done! This week is the last week of our 'continued learning' and we will begin our 'new learning' on April 20th when we return back from our 'Spring Break'. If you have not heard yet, the high school teachers are working on developing assignments and other work that we will begin grading starting April 20th. Obviously, for us PE teachers, these assignments are going to look a little different and we are still trying to figure everything out and work out all the kinks. Please be on the lookout for an email from me with more information in the next few weeks. This week, I am posting both a Dance Fitness channel and a Yoga channel from YouTube. I have been having fun finding different videos and then also trying them out as well. Dance Fitness Channel #2: LIVELOVEPARTY.TV – https://www.youtube.com/user/livelovepartyTV This YouTube channel has a good mix of current popular songs and the typical Zumba type songs. Most of the dances I looked at and tried were easy to learn and had easy moves, which included a mix of Zumba like dance moves and typical dance fitness dance moves. Yoga Channel #2: Yoga with Adriene – https://www.youtube.com/user/yogawithadriene Adriene has numerous yoga videos of varying length, for various purposes, and varying types of yoga. Adriene has also put the videos into playlists based on length and types. There are a lot of options to choose from on Adriene’s channel and many of them are flows that focus on mindfulness and calming the body and mind. |
