This week students will share their dances they have created with their peers in their Phys Ed periods! It is always fun to see what they have come up with in the week of practices leading up to their performances!
Students are reminded that due to FOIP, they are not allowed to film the performances.
Have a great last week of classes before the Winter Break!

Track & Field
It is that time again!
All students in grades 5 through 9 will be participating in a Track and Field Unit in Phys Ed for the next two weeks!
Students are reminded to dress for the weather. It is recommended that students bring sweatpants and hoodies to keep in their Phys Ed lockers for the next couple of weeks.
It is also EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that students have proper footwear. We will be running, jumping and throwing, so proper arch and ankle support is a MUST!!
Finally, we would like to remind students who have asthma to please make sure that they have full inhalers and that they bring them to class!! It does not do them any good to have them locked in a locker in the locker-room.

Feb 16 - Feb 20th
PE 5-9 will be receiving their assessments for their last units, in addition to completing a survey on bullying at Elboya.
We enjoy very well behaved students at Elboya, but it is important for us to understand the incidents that do happen, get a handle on the ones we are not aware of, and collect more information in general about it. It is important that all students feel comfortable when they come to school.
As PE shares the gym, there will be a couple days where we will have to accommodate other programming in the school which will move us out of our space, which will mean alternate programs for our students.

Happy New Year and welcome back!
Last week, students started their new modules for Physical Education. The options are Broom Ball, Floor Hockey and Health Group C.
This week, students will participate in their second week of these modules. Students who are in Broom Ball are reminded to please dress for the weather. Any student who is not prepared to go outside will stay inside on the stage to complete an assignment and will be supervised by Mrs. Simpson.
It's that time of year again! During the months of February and March, students in Grades 4 to 9 will be taking the Human Sexuality Unit in Health classes. We have decided to teach the Human Sexuality Unit in Health earlier than in previous years.
ALL STUDENTS IN GRADES 5 to 9 received a letter to take home on Friday. It explains the curriculum for each grade, provides parents with links to the resources we use in the lessons and has our contact information if you have any questions.
ALL students are required to bring back the last page of the letter with either a Yes or a No for their participation in the unit BY JANUARY 19th.
There will be an opportunity to come in and ask questions or to view the resources we are using JANUARY 19th from 3:30 - 5:00 pm in the Drama Room (Room 13). Mrs. Park and Mrs. Simpson will be available to answer any questions you may have.
If you have any questions, email is the best way to reach us.
Have a great week!
