SOCCER/TEAM HANDBALL

SORRY FOR THE GAP BETWEEN UPDATES….WE HAVE SIMPLY BEEN HAVING TOO MUCH FUN IN PE HERE AT OMIS.  WE HAVE STARTED OUR SOCCER AND TEAM HANDBALL UNITS.  TYPICALLY WE DO A 2 WEEK ROTATION…THIS MEANS THAT MY(COACH GOODWIN) 5TH GRADERS ARE DOING TEAM HANDBALL AND MY 4TH GRADE CLASSES ARE DOING SOCCER.  MS. SIMPKINS’ CLASSES ARE THE OPPOSITE.  WE WILL ROTATE THE WEEK AFTER SPRING BREAK.  YOUR CHILD IS LEARNING AND HAVING A CHANCE TO IMPROVE ON SKILLS IN SOCCER, INCLUDING BALL CONTROL, DRIBBLING, PASSING AND RECEIVING, SHOOTING AND GOAL KEEPING.  TEAM HANDBALL SKILLS BEING COVERED INCLUDE PASSING, RECEIVING, DEFENDING, GETTING OPEN AND GOAL KEEPING.
