Physical Education
PE Class is the best time of the day!!!
2023/2024 school year will be the best they say!!!
Hello my name is Coach Chavarria, and I have been coaching for 31 years! All here at Kate Schenck Elementary! We love our PE class, and look forward to teaching your kids to live a healthy, active life.
In our PE class we like to keep the kids active by using the MVPA motto
Kids will every day have Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity!!!
We use digi walkers for the older kids to monitor students steps, heart rate, and mileage. Also like to keep track up steps during PE.
We are always teaching kids to check for Active heart rate after cardio fitness. They will know the difference in resting heart rate and Active heart rate and how to check for it.
Our kids take pride in Passing the Fitness Gram test that all Texas students have to participate in. This includes
Pacer 20 Meter Test
Sit ups
Push ups
Shoulder stretch
Trunck lift
We are in our 5th year of the CHEF program where the students actively take part in preparing and sampling food donated by the Food Bank. This is a 6 week program where we learn about cooking and making healthier food choices in everyday life.
We also have 5th grade students become Health Ambassadors and help with the weekly lesson.
We have a wide variety of fun warm ups and activities that we like to incorporate into our program through technology and streaming through laptops and projectors.
