Week 3 & 4

ECE
This week students have been using various locomotor skills to travel pathways (straight, zig-zag, curvy) at different levels (low, medium, high). Students were able to explore different pathways all over the floor and then identify them using a labeled cone. The focus of lesson was for students to be able to travel various pathways and still have awareness of staying in their personal space. The first activity was called "Airports". Students, could fly their plane throughout the space, using various pathways. When the music stops, you land your plane at one of the designated airports throughout the cafeteria. When landing their plane, students had to demonstrate what it looks like when your plane lands at a low, medium or high level.

K–GRADE 2
After reviewing locomotor skills the first two weeks, I wanted to incorporate directions, pathways and levels into the activities for the week. Students played a game called "Airports" to focus on self-space and levels and "Over the River" to work on the locomotor skill leaping.

GRADES 3–5
For the next two weeks we will continue working on cooperative games. As we begin to incorporate team games in the lesson, it's important for students to practice demonstrating sportsmanship skills, fair play, safe tagging strategies winning appropriately and accepting a loss. Students worked in groups of 4-5 and tried to move their team from one side of the gym to the other, while standing in hoops.

    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.
