Kingsley Elementary Physical Education September/October Newsletter Kindergarten through Third Grade At the beginning of the school year, Kingsley students in Kindergarten through Third Grade practiced moving around the gym while maintaining their own personal space. Personal space is that space right next to someone but out of reach of anyone or anything else. We also played tag games where students learned to chase, flee and dodge. To further practice the skills of chasing, fleeing, and dodging we played a game called “Capture the Giant Football.” This game also incorporates basic strategies essential for team sports, and students were able to practice cooperation and collaboration skills with each other. Overhand throwing was also introduced and practiced during the game of “Keep Your Trash Off My Lawn.” When using the overhand throw, students need to step with their opposite foot from the side the ball is on, have their arm over their shoulder, have their side to their target, and follow through to the target after letting go of the ball. After learning the skill of overhand throwing, students learned how to throw a Frisbee. Steps to properly throw a Frisbee include placing the thumb on top of the Frisbee, putting the index finger on the rim, and putting the other three fingers underneath the Frisbee. One needs to stand sideways to the target and curve the arm back across the body. As one throws the Frisbee, one has to step towards the target and throw the Frisbee sideways across the body. We also learned how to catch the Frisbee using the sandwich catch. The sandwich catch is when one hand is facing up, the other hand is facing down, and you close both hands around the Frisbee when it comes to you. Students were also introduced to kicking a ball through both basic soccer activities and a game called “Rapid Fire Kickball.” When kicking a ball, one should plant the non-kicking foot to the side of the ball and use the top of the foot to kick the ball. Soccer and “Rapid Fire Kickball” also allowed students to practice working together. Rolling was another skill practiced during Physical Education class. During the various rolling games, students demonstrated the proper technique for rolling a ball. This would include stepping with the opposite foot, bending knees, using a backward-to-forward arm swing, and following through after letting go of the ball. This should ensure a smooth roll with no bounce. Two health-related fitness concepts (cardiovascular endurance and muscular strength and endurance) were also introduced during class. Two health-related fitness concepts (cardiovascular endurance and muscular strength and endurance) were also introduced during class. Students practiced improving their cardiovascular endurance while running laps around the field. Students practiced improving their muscular strength and endurance during the tug a rope activity. Finally, we would like to offer a heartfelt “Thank You!” to the Kingsley PTA for purchasing our new climbing rope. It is a wonderful addition to our gym space. Mr. Gallagher and I look forward to seeing our Kingsley students put it to good use during our rope climbing unit and during Free Choice days! Kingsley Physical Education September/October Newsletter Fourth and Fifth Grades Our fourth and fifth grade students started the school year by learning various football skills. The first skills introduced to them were throwing and catching the footballs. We then progressed to playing offense and defense: having possession of the ball or trying to gain possession from the other team. We also worked on intercepting the ball (an interception is a pass intended for an offensive player that is caught by a defender). We played many lead up football games that helped students improve football passing, catching, offensive and defensive skills. When we completed the football unit, fourth and fifth grade students participated in the Fitnessgram Fitness Tests. Students participated in five different tests: curl ups, push ups, sit and reach, trunk lift , and the Pacer test. The curl up test measures abdominal muscle strength. Good strength and endurance of the abdominal muscles are important in promoting correct posture and pelvic alignment. The push up test measures upper body strength and endurance. Sit and reach measures the flexibility of the lower back and hamstrings. Another flexibility test is trunk lift. Trunk lift measures trunk extensor strength, flexibility, and endurance (your trunk extensors are found in your back). The PACER test, which stands for Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run, measures students’ aerobic capacity. This capacity is the ability to perform large muscle, high intensity exercise for prolonged periods. During the month of October, students participated in the soccer unit. Students practiced the skills of dribbling the soccer ball, defending, goal tending, passing, and ball control skills. Finally, we would like to offer a heartfelt “Thank You!” to the Kingsley PTA for purchasing our new climbing rope. It is a wonderful addition to our gym space. Mr. Gallagher and I look forward to seeing our Kingsley students put it to good use during our rope climbing unit and during Free Choice days!

Adolescence now lasts longer than ever, and the adolescent brain is surprisingly malleable. These new discoveries make this time of life crucial in determining a person’s ultimate success and happiness. In this lecture, Laurence Steinberg, Ph.D., one of the world's leading authorities on adolescence, will discuss the teenage brain’s potential for change, the elongation of adolescence as a developmental stage, and the implications of each for how we parent, educate, and understand young people. His brand-new bestselling book, Age of Opportunity: Lessons from the New Science of Adolescence, has blurbs on the covers from 7 former FAN speakers., all of them high praise: Rosalind W isem an, Jennifer Senior, David Sheff, M adeline Levine, Ph.D., Carol Dweck, Ph.D., Daniel Siegel, M D, and Angela Lee Duckworth, Ph.D. There are few as distinguished in the field of adolescent development as Dr. Steinberg – come learn from the best! Tuesday, Novem ber 4, 2014, You and Your Adolescent: A Practical W orkshop for Parents, 9:30 AM , New Trier High School, Northfield Cam pus, Cornog Auditorium , 7 Happ Rd., Northfield, 60093 (RSVP Requested). When parents are asked to name the most difficult periods in their child’s development, the teen years usually are at the top of the list. But with a better understanding of how and why your child is changing during the transition into and through adolescence, you can become a more effective parent, reduce the amount of conflict you and your teenager have, help your teenager develop in positive ways, and maintain your own equanimity. In this workshop, Laurence Steinberg, Ph.D., one of the world’s leading authorities on adolescence, will provide an overview of the major physical, intellectual, social, and emotional changes that take place as children move into and through adolescence. You will gain an understanding of how your teenager thinks, why his or her behavior is changing, how your relationship is being transformed, and how all of this is affecting parents’ own well-being. RSVP requested: bit.ly/SteinbergW orkshop. Dr. Steinberg is a Distinguished University Professor and the Laura H. Carnell Professor of Psychology at Tem ple University. He is the author of more than 350 articles and essays on development during the teenage years, and the author or editor of 17 books. He has been a featured guest on numerous television programs, including CBS Morning News, Today, Good Morning America, 20/20, Dateline, PBS News Hour, and The Oprah Winfrey Show, and is a frequent consultant on adolescence for print and electronic media, including the New York Times and NPR.
