P.E. Run, jump, throw

Today we participated in a P.E. lesson in preparation for Athletics day in Week 3 of this term.  Our focus was on running.  

We learned that P.E. stands for physical education.  So we are basically learning about movement and sports.  

For running we learned to keep our head up and to look where we are running.  We learned to keep our arms bent at our elbows (but not too much!) and to have our elbows by our sides.  We also learned about what a rectangle is, and how it has four sides.  Two long sides and two short sides.  We had to stay inside the rectangle while we were trying different running techniques.  Lots of new learning for everyone!
