ECE
Welcome to Health and Physical Education! This being the first week seeing a lot of the ECE students we had the chance to talk about safety and rules when we are in PE and how to find our own personal space. Students used various locomotor skills (marching, jumping, galloping, bear crawls, frog jumps) to move throughout the dance room, without touching their classmates. We also used music to familiarize students with start/stop signals and how to control their bodies while moving.

K–GRADE 2
Kindergarten-2nd graders reviewed safety/rules of the gym and worked on locomotor movements (galloping, skipping, jumping, bear crawls) at different speeds and levels. Students also reviewed the concepts of personal space and how to move throughout an area safely, while changing speeds and staying within boundaries.

GRADES 3–5

My 3rd-5th graders were able to review safety and rules of the gym as well as identifying what self-responsibility and sportsmanship looks like during activities. We have been using cooperative games (Ring of Fire, Stuck With You and Rock, Paper, Scissors Challenge) to work together, build communication and teamwork skills.

    Coach Smith

    I graduated in 2007, from the University of Delaware with a B.S. in Health Studies. I took the next 4 years to play professional basketball both in the WNBA and in different countries across Europe. I had the opportunity to work with all different aged students, running day camps and skill clinics for basketball and other sports.

    It was after training and working with such a diverse group of coaches, students and teammates that I decided to return to the U.S. and pursue a Master's in Physical Education. After my first year in grad school, I started a position as a PE Coach, at the Suzuki School in Atlanta, GA.

    This will be my first year in DCPS and I am looking forward to an awesome school year at Ludlow-Taylor Elementary.
