We are going to start "Milage Club" for part of our PE time.

I will be tracking students laps around the field throughout the rest of the year and we are going to be keeping track of how far your students have walked/ran.

I plan to connect the distances with math an geography for our kids as we look at maps and add miles as a whole class and per person to it.

I plan to hold awards at the end of the year so I'll be sure to invite you all to that as well to help celebrate!

I'll be posting progress for you to follow along with us through the year.

We are getting things kicked off on 10/9 with a strong start. The kids are finding a groove and are making this a intense competition. I cannot wait to start posting results for you all. I will only upload photos with no names for student privacy. If you do not want your students photo posted make sure to reach out to me and I will respect those wishes.
