WELCOME TO MOOREPE'S BLOG

Hi everyone! I'm really excited about the upcoming school year. I have a lot of ideas that I am going to share in our Physical Education classes with you. I would love to create a program that has lots of energy, variety and learning. I'm also excited about learning new things from you... THE STUDENTS! That is why I set up this blog. As often as possible (hopefully weekly), I will update this blog with ideas for you to take home and try. Don't keep these ideas to yourself, share them with your family members. Get everyone involved! Bottom line, 45 minutes @ 2x's a week isn't going to cut it. We need to be active every day!!!! It doesn't matter what you do as long as you do something and enjoy it.

The second reason I created this blog is to get feedback from you the student. I know a lot of you have been at summer camps or involved in other activities and you probably have some really neat ideas that you would like to share with the rest of us. If possible, I'll use it in our PE classes. However, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to do that. I can GUARANTEE that I will share it with everyone else.

For example, if you have a neat idea for a soccer drill that you think would fit into what we're doing in class then let me know either in person and/or this blog. If you just played a high energy game on the Nintendo Wii that was lots of fun, share it with us! If you learned an awesome game at camp.... SHARE IT!!! I want to hear your ideas as well!

A third reason that I wanted to set up this blog is to show off YOUR work. If you improved in a certain activity or obtained a goal that you set or simply have a neat idea. WELL... you deserve to be recognized for that and I will do my best to do that for you on this blog.

If you have any comments, please leave them and keep checking back here weekly for new ideas on how to keep active!

Thanks and best of luck in the new school year to everyone!

Mr. Moore
