Physical Education - Ms. Sawchuk
March 18, 2024
Welcome to Physical Education at Pinkham School! My name is Mrs. Sawchuk and I will be the physical education teacher this school year. We have a lot of fun inside the gym and play many different games and activities that will improve your child’s fundamental movement skills. The physical education curriculum content is organized within the following five general learning outcomes: movement, fitness management, safety, personal and social management, and healthy lifestyle practices.
Students will be assessed on their competency in selected movement skills, and knowledge of movement development and physical activities with respect to different types of learning experiences, environments, and cultures, and their ability to develop and follow a personal fitness plan for lifelong physical activity and well-being. My goal as a physical education teacher is to create an environment that promotes children to adopt a healthy lifestyle by being physically active.
