Mrs. Brandt

Valentine Hills would like to thank the 621 Foundation for their generous donation. Out on the playground are two new basketball hoops that were bought with this money. The hoops are at the 8 foot level to help all those beginning basketball players develop their shooting and playing skills with a lower basketball hoop. Thank you also to the Mounds View staff that were involved in making sure the hoops were put into the ground safely and securely.Basketball hoops

Physical Education 

Mrs. Brandt always keeps the students moving in Phy Ed!!

 

At the beginning of every class we warm up and try to strengthen all parts of our bodies. Also, during every class we use activities such as jump roping, games, running and other movement activities to work on cardio-vascular fitness and social skills such as teamwork, cooperation and being a good friend.

In the fall we take advantage of the outdoor field whenever the weather permits. Students in all grades have worked with the soccer balls, footballs and frisbees. Grades 3-5 have focused on games of Two-handed touch Football, Soccer and modified LaCrosse.

During the winter, students in Grades K-2 will work on rhythm activities, and the use of many types of equipment (parachute, scooters, different types of balls, gymnastics, rope climbing etc.) Grades 3-5 will work on volleyball, basketball, floor hockey, gymnastics, and parachute. We also hope to be taking advantage of the snow in January in Grades 1-5.


 

Here are some pictures of students being active outside on the field. Whenever the weather permits, Mrs. Brandt tries to bring students outdoors for Phy Ed.

***Please make sure your child has appropriate outdoor clothing and gym shoes!!!***

THANK YOU!
