Happy 2010!
The start of a new year is an exciting time for students in Physical Education. All classes will be learning how to use the Rock Wall. Students will learn the proper way to climb on the wall, the safety rules involved in using the wall and the older students will even learn how to spot each other.
Another exciting event that will be taking place in February is Jump Rope/Hoops for Heart. Kindergarten through third grade will be jumping rope in physical education and fourth and fifth graders will be playing basketball. Students will try to raise money for the American Heart Association. It's a fun event and a great way to help out other people.
With the winter weather please help remind your son/daughter to wear sneakers on Physical Education days. Students may wear boots to school but should pack their sneakers so they can participate in p.e. Listed below is the schedule and on the Bowers school website is a master calendar.

Happy New Year!
