Welcome to Sunset
Elementary  
Physical Education



Hi,

Welcome to the 2012 - 2013 School Year.

My name is Susan Nicholson and I am the Physical Education Teacher at Sunset Elementary School.

Teaching has been a very rewarding experience and I feel fortunate to have worked at the same school for 27 years.
 
I work with a great group of professionals who strive to create the best learning experiences for each student here at Sunset.

Education

B.A. - Physical Education - University of Northern Colorado, 1984

M.S. - Integrating Technology into the Classroom - Walden University, 2005






Mission Statement

My mission is to help all students reach their highest potential. I want them to feel good about themselves and enjoy learning. I will treat them with respect and teach them to respect others. I will help them understand the importance of a healthy body and the benefits of maintaining their health. I want students to leave my classroom knowing they can be as successful as they want to be.


A Physically Educated Person:

* Has learned skills necessary to perform a variety of physical activities.

* Does participate regularly in physical activity.

* Is physically fit.

* Knows implications of and benefits from involvement in physical  activities

* Values physical activity and its contributions to a healthy lifestyle.




Important information regarding Physical Education
   
     
                                                  

Please remember
non-marking
tennis shoes for the gym floor.
(Sandals, Heelys, Crocs, and hiking boots are not allowed on the gym floor for Physical Education)

   

Kindergarten through fifth grade classes have physical education four days each week for 30 minute sessions.  As noted above, please make sure your student brings their tennis shoes, (tied correctly), on physical education days. 


Field Day is May 17, 2013. More information will be sent home as the schedule for the day is finalized. 


We will be fitness testing all first through fifth grade students this spring. The fall fitness test is used as a guideline and every students goal is to improve their scores in the spring.
