Hello students and parents!
I hope everyone is staying safe out there and I will miss teaching you in PE class while we are not at school, but the good news is you can always practice the skills you need to keep your body healthy.
I’ve included some daily workouts for you to try and also linked up resources and activities that you can check out over the next few weeks. Also, don’t be afraid to get creative! One day in college, when my roommates and I were trying to be responsible and save money, we made up a game called Pots. Basically, we would spread out pots and pans in an open area, assign each one a point value, fold up a pair of socks to use as a ball, and challenge each other with different trick shots.
If you want, you can have your parents send a picture or video if you are working on any of these activities to seades@newberry.k12.sc.us. I’d love to share with the staff how our Wildcats are staying active!
Please go to documents under the menu tab and find the PE folder under the 10-day packets for remote learning folder. Other than the daily workouts provided in this packet, you can find lots of additional ideas linked on the last page.
Stay Safe, Have Fun and Keep Yourself Active!

One lunch for the current day will be provided along with a breakfast for the following morning. Pick up time is between 10am and noon, Monday through Friday. We appreciate your support and understanding as we work through the challenges of school closures.
With the Governor’s proclamation for closing schools, Little Mountain Elementary will be postponing our Pre-K and Kindergarten screening originally scheduled for March 26th and 27th. As soon as we reschedule the screening, we will mail postcards with the new date and time. If you have any documents that need to be submitted to the office, we ask that you bring them when you bring your child to the screening.

Thank you to Peak Pharmacy for becoming a 2019-2020 LME Lighthouse Business Partner. Mrs. Glynnis Abraham, Business Partner Coordinator, surprised PE teacher, Ms. Sarah Eades, with a peg board for climbing and a fitness game. We can’t wait to watch our students master the peg board! And we are looking forward to playing the fitness game.
Mrs. Abraham surprised 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Brandi Hayes, with 2 Osmo Genius Starter Kits. Perfect timing.....our 3rd grade students are at the beginning of their Geometry Unit. Our students are going to love the Osmos.
Thank you Peak Pharmacy.

Here is a great opportunity for our children to extend their learning from the walls of our school to a community event.
Mrs Jones, our art teacher, specifically taught our 5th graders about Dave the Potter during their clay unit.
We encourage you to take advantage of this local opportunity. This is a FREE performance at the Opera House before the SC Clay Conference begins.
