Hi Chargers,
I hope you are doing well and staying active during this time. I have missed coaching my Keene Elementary athletes, and helping them reach their athletic goals in PE.
On this page I will include all sorts of ideas and activities to keep our Chargers active. You will find our daily warm ups, other activities and games, and outside resources. I will be updating this page often so be sure to check back in and see what new things I have posted. Feel free to contact me at wknaub@keeneisd.org if you have any questions.
Go Chargers!

DAILY WARM UPS
Here you will find the daily warm ups that the Chargers are used to doing.
Sound can be turned down on videos (there is a lot of bird chirping in one or all) and just follow along. All of this is familiar to the kids.
NOTE: Just like in class, kids can follow as best they are able, and take breaks while standing then join back in. This is the class routine (plus more), something they are familiar with, so they should just go along as normal doing the best they can. Do this all the way through, use parts, make up new stuff, anything, just stay active during this time Chargers!

This includes agility line exercises for all kids. 50 feet is what they are used to. Do the best you can.
A bunch of options, we have done them this year, but not all in one day.
I drew one on a parking lot using a chunk of concrete.

Just Dance videos
GoNoodle videos

Fitness Challenges….pick an amount of time, pick an exercise, do the most you can, challenge your family
Jump rope
A family walk
Activity logs are a great way to track your physical activity, fitness, and growth as you exercise. Here is an example of one. You can use this one, the one above, or make your own. Just be sure that you have a date, the exercises you did, and the amount of time you spent on it. I included thoughts/comments on mine for some reflection and goal setting.
Check with your family before doing some of these......they might not want you doing some of these inside. Others require parental assistance.
