Xploration
The X-Ploration team is so excited to be back to support your students with amazing lessons in STEM, VAPA, Coding and PE, as well as provide you with valuable collaboration time with colleagues. X-Ploration Lesson #1 is our first VAPA : Theater content lesson where students will learn to work together while playing theater games. Included in this lesson are reminders about sportsmanship and teamwork that students will practice during the PE half of the X-Ploration day. With VAPA Theater, primary students will practice theater games that encourage cooperation and creativity. Upper grade students will work on more advanced theater activities that require more focus and concentration.
Our first Xploration Day is Thursday -
On each X-Ploration day this year, students will be focused on Physical Literacy, to include activities that will promote the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to value and take responsibility for engagement in physical activities for life. The X-Ploration team will bring all equipment required for student use on each X-Ploration day.
