Our last unit in PE is Pickleball, one of the fastest growing sports in the United States! We've practiced hand-eye coordination, cooperation, teamwork, and socialization. It's a great way to have fun with family and friends while getting in some physical activity! We played a single elimination tournament in 4th and 5th grades during A-Day rotation times.
Thank you to the Okeyha Mother's Club and Healthy Schools Oklahoma for purchasing our pickleball sets!!! #hsok #perocks #oklaed #ingnite
