Concepts: Spring is in the air and K-1 have been finishing up their bird feeding and bird making projects. Second grade has been focused on technmology from programming to imagining how we could build robots that help people. Let's check out what they have been up to!
Look at the beak. Do you know what kind of food this person's bird eats?
Students in first grade made sure safety first as we soon attempted to make elephant toothpaste after finishing our bird feeders!

ATL SKILL: Developing Gross-motor skills.
Students use the hula hoop as a jump rope.
Students swing the hula hoop around their arm.
In our IB PYP Physical Education lessons, students have been exploring creative movement using hula hoops in a variety of engaging ways. They practiced coordination and control by swinging the hoop around their arm, developed rhythm and timing by using it like a jump rope, and experimented with spatial awareness by tossing it like a boomerang. Students also worked on core strength and balance while rotating the hoop around their waist. These activities support the development of fundamental movement skills while encouraging creativity, confidence, and active participation in a fun, inclusive environment.
