2014-2015 a year in review...

Well I've been out of school for a few weeks and I have had to time to reflect on the year and begin to make new goals for our PE program for the 2015-2016 school year. 

The beginning of Our year was exciting as we received the Bates Foundation Grant that was almost $5,000. It allowed us to buy 30 heart rate monitors 10 Ipad minis for our program. Our students jumped right on board and just LOVED using both! Thanks to Partners in Education for making this possible.

Mr. C and I joined forces even more this year to work towards doing an even better job of aligning our classes. We worked hard at developing units that were engaging,  instructive and physically literate. We want our students to not only be physically active but know why to be physically active. We want our students to not only be physically active in our classes but learn to be physically active for a lifetime.

This past year we took our Adapted PE classes to a whole new level! I mean out of this park and I look forward to moving it further along. One of the goals I have this coming year is to start a volunteer program. If you are reading this and feel led to become a part of our APE program at BME please email me at megandavis@staff.craven.k12.nc.us. I would love to give you more information on what it entails.

As I head into the middle and end of July I will once again be heading to the National PE institute. It is AMAZING and I always come back with a TON of ideas and resources. So many of my fellow fellows from last year are presenting and I can not wait to see there presentations.

Now here are a few of my favorite pictures from this school year! ENJOY!
 Mr. C. Got sung to for Valentines Day! He was three shades of red! It was GREAT!
 Our New shelves! YAY to organization!
 Our teachers being just a little competitive!
