Cushing's Corner Fall 2022

 



It was so nice to see so many of you at the Open House.  I enjoyed catching up with past students, as well as meeting our new incoming third graders.  We are going to have a GREAT year!

I realize that teaching your child is a privilege, as well as a tremendous responsibility.  I ensure that each student will have a motivating and safe learning experience in the gym.  I look forward to working with your child this year. Gym shoes are a must each day.  This is for the safety of your child.  If your child does not wear gym shoes to school, please send a pair in.  Students must have gym shoes on in order to participate!  

During the first few days we will go through rules and expectations for PE class and recess. By next week, we will get right into some team building activities that we can build on throughout the year.  We will focus on safety, cooperation, communication, and trust.  

Fifth graders see me FIRST thing in the morning.  Chances are there will be dew on the grass at some point.    
The students might get their socks/shoes wet.  It is a good idea for the fifth graders to bring an extra pair of shoes and socks for after PE. We do go outside weather permitting.  This can usually go well into October.

Cushing's Corner - Spring 2022

 


Spring is in the air!  We are so excited here at PV to make the most of the spring moving as much as we can.  Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather.  The GREAT news this week is that lunch will be going back into the lunchroom after break.  This means that after 2 years of having tables in the gym, they will be gone!  Please ask your child about it after spring break.
I am excited to get back to the "normal" before all of this began.  I hope the last weeks of school are AMAZING for everyone!!!
