rhythm & movement
We’re excited to let you know about a new part of our K–5 Physical Education program called Rhythm and Movement.
This new program helps students build coordination, timing, and body control through fun, active experiences that involve music, patterns, and creative movement. Whether it’s clapping, stepping, jumping, or moving in sync with others, students will explore rhythm in ways that support their physical development and confidence.
Every activity is designed to be inclusive, age-appropriate, and aligned with national learning standards for physical education. Most importantly, it’s all about helping kids stay active, build skills, and enjoy moving their bodies in new ways.
We’re looking forward to sharing this with our students and seeing them thrive through Rhythm and Movement!
