Middle School PE Week 1



Hello! My name is Maren Aberle, also known as "Coach Aberle" and I am teaching Middle School PE and Health this year. This week Middle School, students learned the new "Power 5". They will be using the Power 5 to enter PE this year. Students will warm-up by doing the following activities: run, tuck jumps, burpees, crunches and push-ups. This warm-up will be followed by stretching. This allows all students to be fully warmed up for an hour of PE. The activity this week was called "The Human Square". The objective of the activity was to learn (re-learn) the key components of teamwork--communication, trust and maintaining an open mind. The activity involved being blindfolded and working with classmates to form the human square. Much fun was had and the Middle School students began their year with a fantastic teamwork mindset.
