[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's son's experience has been my son's experience in K at Glebe.  A lot of it is that they really are teaching them some hand-eye stuff he wouldn't get if he just had free time.  And they incorporate equipment a lot, hula-hoops, bean bags, someone else mentioned bowling pins... but it does mean that kids have to spend time listening and then doing what they are told, so my kid has come home with behavior reminders, and doesn't love PE.  He does love recess, though. And he gets a ton of outdoor time at Glebe, or at least more in comparison to preK in DCPS. I look it from the perspective that it wasn't until I was an adult that I learned to safely run, lift..., and he's getting a lot of the fundamentals that I missed when I was being slammed in the head by a dodgeball.  Also, he just needs to listen sometimes.  [/quote]
I think I may need this PE course![/quote]

The Glebe PE teachers are fabulous! PE isn't recess.  Glebe has a very comprehensive, age-appropriate and skill based PE curriculum.
