Miss Fischer
Physical Education

The intent of the physical education program at Blackbird Elementary is to provide children of all abilities and interests with a foundation of movement experiences that will eventually lead to active, healthy lifestyles. To obtain this, I will try to provide activities that will:

• Develop motor skills
• Increase levels of physical fitness
• Develop an awareness of good sportsmanship
• Increase awareness of safety in all activities
• Develop a healthy attitude toward Physical Education and fitness
• Develop an awareness to participate as a team member and as a leader

To obtain these goals, we participate in a variety of activities that include soccer, gymnastics, basketball, tennis, hockey, volleyball, physical fitness and track. I am also pleased that we are able to offer the American Red Cross Learn to Swim program to each of our kindergarten, first and second grade students throughout the year, as well as downhill skiing to our second graders. These special activities enhance our program.
