An Important Letter to All SUNRISE Students and Parents
I hope that everyone is doing well and that your family is staying safe during this very sad coronavirus pandemic.
Since we have many students away from school and not able to follow our regular learning routine, it is still very important to stay in close contact with your classroom teacher for at-home class assignments and activities.
And as your PE teacher, I still want you to understand how important it is to continue being physically active even while you are at home. Your physical activities may now be different but you can still have FUN and be creative with physical activities EVERYDAY!!
We have created a “Sunrise Virtual Online PE” website that students can go to each day for fun activities and to continue being physically active. I know there are many physical activities that are on this website that you will enjoy.
CLICK HERE to go to our “Sunrise Virtual Online PE” website
On this website you will see a wide variety of activities that you can choose from.
To improve your Physical Fitness level each day:
1. Each day go to this website and click on the links for at least 2 – 3 different activities and be active for at least 60
minutes each day.
Also, try some of the new activities on this website of things you may never have done before.
2. There is also information on this PE website of how to create your own “PE Portfolio” where you can record
your progress of your daily physical activities by writing down your activities and how many minutes you spent
each day on that activity.
Some students and parents may be currently viewing this website from a location other than your home. If you don't have access to WIFI while at your home and can’t get on this website from your home on a regular basis then you can still be creative and find physical activities to do that you remember from our PE class activities.
Examples would be of doing our warm-up exercises every day, or jumping rope, and most importantly using whatever equipment and balls that you may have at home to play games. You also can be playing some of our PE games with your siblings and family members or make-up your own games.
It is important to remember even though schools may be out and we may not have PE classes we can still have fun being Physically Active and your new "Workout and Physical Activity Partners" can be a sibling or a parent.
The activities that are listed on this PE website can make “Family Fitness” become FUN activities and be a part of your DAILY FAMILY ROUTINE.
Choose your Favorite activities from the website and also try some new activities!
In addition, you can CLICK HERE to go to our “Sunrise Additional PE Links” page. This page of our PE website has more information regarding PE activities. It contains information on a wide variety of sports, activities, and important safety information. The information on this page will assist you in a better undertanding of rules, techniques, and fun fitness workouts.
So let's HAVE FUN and STAY FIT with the wide variety of activities to choose from on this PE website!
Please email me and let me know how you and your family are doing and if you may have any questions.
Thanks,
