At Green Lake, our physical education program stresses cooperation, teamwork, positive attitude, and allows all students to succeed.
Get kids in shape -- make fitness fun!
Green Lake School provides 150 minutes of PE for Kindergartners each week. For First through Fifth grades, Students alternate between 60 minutes one week and 90 minutes the next week.
Our teachers design units to incorporate all learners and build curriculum to include basketball and soccer, as well as dance and gymnastics.
GLES has a full-sized gymnasium with an indoor climbing wall, as well as an outdoor playground. In a departure from traditional PE classes, which emphasized competitive team sports and often penalized less athletic students, Green Lake's innovative PE teacher, Jame Matthews emphasizes games that promote fun and cooperation as well as encouraging agility and vigorous activity.
