Buddies for Buddies

Dublin Elementary School is home to our wonderful preschool special day class. It is my hope that I am able to pair up your child (5th grader) with a buddy from one of these classes during these students Motor Group time. These times will vary and will require your student to be out of class for a short period of time during Friday’s. (10:05-10:35)

In order to minimize interference with instructional time in your child’s classroom I will be implementing a rotational schedule, so that your child will not be pulled every week during important classroom times.

This program is designed to promote ability awareness, friendship, and a healthy lifestyle. It will encourage students to be active in their Dublin Elementary community. Finally, it will bring exposure to different adaptive equipment and accommodation in a Physical Education environment so that all of our friends can participate.

We have three major events in addition to pushing into the classrooms once a month. These events include two Young Athlete Days (one in the fall and one in the spring) and an Ice Cream Social for our end of the year celebration. I look forward to another great year!
