Welcome to PE with Coach Pope! I'm excited to begin working with my new groups for our second trimester of school: Ms. Conroy's group, Ms. Hawley's class, Ms. Graham's group, Mrs. Hensler's group, and the boys from Mrs. Davis and Ms. Tucker's classes!

This week all grade levels will be introduced to Burnball - a Swedish version of baseball. Many of the rules of the game are very similar to American baseball but there is one VERY important difference, there are NO outs! Burnball enables students to not only improve their hand-eye coordination and running skills, but critical thinking and problem-solving skills as well. We'll even throw in a little math! Its great fun - ask your child to compare and contrast Burnball and American baseball. Ask which one they prefer!
