Carpenter School P.E.
With Mrs Meza
Dear Carpenter School Families,
My name is Mrs. Meza and I am so excited to be your child's PE teacher this year! I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and is ready to be back in the action of another amazing school year. I loved having the opportunity to meet many new faces this week and reconnect with students I have taught in the past. This week we focused on getting to know one another better and discussed our classroom norms. It is my hope all students know, or they will grow to understand, our class is a place where we have fun and a lot of learning happens! In our class we spread kindness and positivity and we all mistakes and grow. This year is going to be awesome!
Lots of love,
Mrs. Meza
Gym Shoes; Yes Please!
If your child does not wear athletic shoes to school please make sure they have an extra pair of shoes to change into. Students need to wear gym shoes to participate safely during PE activities.
Bring Layers
With cooler temperatures quickly approaching please make sure your child is prepared to participate outside. The P.E. Department is planning to be outside as much as possible.
Health Concerns
If you child has any health concerns please let us know. We are happy to adapt any activity to his/her needs. If your child cannot participate due to illness or injury send a note to the school nurse. Your child's health and safety are a top priority.
Developing Physical Literacy
Everyday we use the the National Standards for K-12 Physical Education. These standards help all students become a physically literate person. Being physically literate is a fancy way of of saying students know how to be active and enjoy it! Learning to be physically literate in physical education class now will help all students live a healthy and active life well into adulthood.
My virtual door is always open!
Physical Education Teachers, movement enthusiasts, and passionate advocate for all learners.
