Changes for 2nd Quarter
As second quarter approaches, the design and lay out of Jefferson PE will be changing slightly based on student feedback and educator collaboration. The study of fitness concepts through inquiry and development of projects will continue, however an emphasis on physical activity within synchronous and asynchronous time will also become a vital part of the structure. The purpose of this transition is to provide students a chance to experience different activity levels of their choice while building upon the healthy fitness components they have learned in first quarter. We are excited for this new adventure and look forward to further parent/student involvement and feedback throughout the next few weeks and months to come.
Sincerely,
Jefferson Physical Education Department
