Welcome to Coach Batchler’s PE Class 

What are we doing in P.E.???

This nine weeks we will begin our brand new unit, basketball. We will cover everything in the game of basketball including, but not limited to shooting, dribbling, three types of passes, the bounce, the chest, and overhead pass. We will also work on offense and defense. We will cover all the rules of the game as well.

What are we going to learn?

• Shooting (B.E.E.F.)
• Balence
• Eyes
• Elbow
• Follow-through

·     Passing

• Chest Pass
• Bounce Pass
• Overhead Pass

·    Dribbling

• Using pads of the fingers
• Pushing the ball, not slapping
• Cross-over dribble

·    Offense and Defense

My goal is that by the time we are finished you will be better equipped to play this game. You will also have learned the skills necessary to participate in basketball tryouts if you choose to. The ultimate goal is to gain exposure and to HAVE FUN!!!

               SO WHAT'S NEXT???

Things to come include line dancing, Badminton, Four square, and Dodge ball. This is going to be an exciting year and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!!!
