A BIG SHOUT OUT!- Mrs. Carpenter

I wanted to take a moment and highlight a special person to our PE program. Mrs. Carpenter is not only a BIG supporter of our PE program but she is our go to sub for both Mr. C and Mrs. Davis. When she is at BME for one of us we have great confidence that all will be ok with her there. She has filled in for both of us over the years at a moments notice and we are so appreciative for all that she does. She adds a competive edge to our classes and always a comic relief. She keeps us laughing and on our toes. Thank you Mrs. Carpenter for always being willing to pitch in and fill in. It means more to us and to our students than you will ever know! 

YOU ARE AWESOME!

BME staff takes on Battleship!

I've mentioned it before but I work with the best staff! Mr. c and I were asked to lead a part of our staff meeting today. We put our heads together along with Mrs Aguair and came up with one of our kids' favorites- Battleship. Prizes were given for the inning teams and Our First Grade Team won twice! Our 4th grade

Team one of the rounds as well!! Way to go ladies!! One of the prizes was a lunch off campus and the other prize was Dunkin Donut gift cards. Check out the pictures! Everyone got their heart rate up and laughed a little too!

So much fun! 

What have we been up to?

You might be wondering what is going on in PE at Brinson? I'm so glad you asked! 

We here in Eastern NC have been freezing!!! I mean below normal temps, ice, cold temps, snow and even more low temps. I'm just going to be honest...it's been pretty miserable outside. BUT inside our gym we have been busy!!

Here is recap of just a few things going on..

K-2 

We have been warming up with a game called Snakes and lizards. So much fun! It combines balancing with locomotor skills. While hard to organize at times- the students LOVE it! 

We've also been learning how to roll and catch with a partner. Check out the pictures!

Students had a wide variety of equipment to practice rolling and catching. 

3-5

Our new units include Tinikeling and Basketball. Well last week Ronald McDonald came so PE doesn't stop- we just relocated to the cafeteria. 

Some other exciting news is we have NEW SHELVES!! Ahh yeah!! Love organizing and finding new homes for equipment that was just everywhere. We are having fun organizing!! Here are some of the beginning pictures. More pictures to come of the finished product!

This is located at the back of the stage. As soon as they were done friday I stayed late trying to organize a bit.
