6th Graders - Archery

The NLES 6th grade students are in the middle of their

NASP Archery unit and having a fantas�c �me. So what is

NASP? NASP stands for Na�onal Archery in the Schools Pro-

gram. NASP promotes interna�onal-style archery as part of

the in-school curriculum to improve educa�onal perfor-

mance and par�cipa�on in the shoo�ng sports among stu-

dents in grades 4-12. Nearly everyone can enjoy success at

archery. The sport or discipline of archery is highly inclu-

sive and is for many enthusiasts, a life long ac�vity. Ar-

chery is a diverse and super-safe shoo�ng ac�vity with a

wide variety of formats and

styles. In NASP-style archery,

students of all genders, abili-

�es and backgrounds flourish.

Fall Fundraising - TBD

Market Day has been the

annual PE fundraiser

that has helped our PE

department purchase

new equipment in the

last few years. With the

efforts of all of the K-4th

graders, we now have

ac�vi�es to look forward to such as Badminton, Frisbee,

Tennis, Pickleball, 9-Square in the Air and other fun ac-

�vies. Some other items under considera�on for future

fundraising $ include bicycles, climbing wall, and inflata-

ble bumper balls. Unfortunately, Market Day has been

bought out and doesn't exist any longer so we are inves-

�ga�ng other alterna�ves for fund raising opportuni-

�es. So be on the lookout for a new Fall Fundraiser for

opportuni�es to support our PE department and expand

our equipment for all of the students.

1st and K Graders - Perceptual Motor

Perceptual-Motor abili�es are strengthened through ac�vi-

�es with bean bags, balls, jump ropes, hoops, and scooters

which are all units that these grades will be par�cipa�ng in

in the coming weeks. Perceptual motor development at

this stage is an important part of the PE process.

Primary objec�ves: 1. Assist each student in acquiring efficient movement.

2. Promote improved sensory func�oning.

3. Development of a posi�ve self-image.

The main areas of program concentra�on are in promo�ng

improved: 1. Balance Skills (Sta�c and Dynamic)

2. Locomotor Skills (Transport Movements)

3. Hand-Eye and Foot-Eye Coordina�on

4. Body and Space Awareness

4th - 3rd - 2nd Graders - GOLF

The First Tee Na�onal School Golf Program curriculum centers on four primary areas: 1) life-

long ac�vity, 2) character and health educa�on – personal and social responsibility, 3) motor

skill and concept learning, and 4) developmental approach to learning. Par�cipa�ng students

ac�vely engage in a variety of motor skills associated with striking a sta�onary ball with a

long-handled implement to a target. Striking is taught through the basic golf skills of puA,

chip, pitch and full swing in gradual progression to align with students’ developmental process as they move through

24 lessons throughout the elementary years. Basic skills are presented to students on how to hold, set up, and safely

swing a puAer and a wedge. Cue word sequences are taught to enable students to beAer understand the body posi-

�ons for performing the cri�cal elements of each skill. Students par�cipa�ng in the Na�onal School Program will learn

the basic motor skill concepts of personal space, force, flow, rela�onships to objects, and rou�nes.

As a culmina�on to the Golf classes, 4th grade students will visit the Tri-Way Family Golf Facility in Plymouth to prac�ce

the new skills that they have learned on September 11th (rain date September 15th). They will be travelling by bus,

and permission slips and money for the 4th grade students are due to their homeroom teacher by Friday, September

4th. Don’t forget that those students will need to bring a brown bag lunch to eat upon their return to school that day.

5th Graders - Bowling

The NLES 5th grade students are in the middle of their

Bowling unit and it is a striking good �me. So why do we

teach Bowling? Bowling is a great sport for everyone!

• There are no size or strength limita�ons for success.

• Bowling is a Family-Oriented Ac�vity.

• Bowling builds self -confidence and posi�ve self-esteem.

• Bowling is a great team sport.

• Bowling is a great individual sport.

• Bowling can be enjoyed in a social or a compe��ve form.

• Bowling is a success-oriented life�me sport.

• Bowling provides enjoyment for children of any age.

• Bowling is FUN!

We will take a field trip to Chippewa Bowl on September

16th for lunch and bowling. Bowling permission slips

and money are due Wednesday, September 9th.

EASY WAYS TO SUPPORT NLES

You can help NLES get a share of $175,000 in educational equipment (balls for recess, etc.) just by using your Martin’s Advantage Card when you shop! You’ll earn the school a point for every dollar you spend. The school’s total earned points will be split proportionally for credit

among all other schools signed up for the program. You must register your card at http://www.martins-supermarkets.com/advantageeducation/ or at a Martin’s customer service desk for your

purchases to count. Our School Code is 4785.

Snap pictures of your receipts from any store, big or small, that sells grocery items to earn Roo Points (cash donations) for the Summer Reading Program. Receipts from restaurants and non-grocery retailers count as an entry for our school into Shoparoo's $1,000 monthly sweepstakes and $15,000 yearly sweepstakes! Download the free Shoparoo app to your phone and start earning points in minutes.

Purchase your favorite Coca-Cola beverages and get My Coke Rewards codes. Go to www.mycokerewards.com to register and enter the codes. After entering the codes, choose to donate them to our school. You can also send the caps in with your child and we

will take care of entering the codes. A bin for the caps is located in the school lobby. Accumulated points will be used to purchase items such as athletic equipment and classroom supplies from a coke rewards catalog. Please send in caps with entered codes to support our Community Bench Project program.

Box Tops can be found on hundreds of products. Clip box tops from packages and send them in with your child. Each Box Top is worth 10 cents. Teachers can use Box Tops cash to buy whatever they need for their own classrooms. Collection sheets can be picked up in the

office. Please do not attach BONUS Box Tops to the collection sheets. Put them in an envelope marked with the name of your child’s teacher and turn them in separately.

Labels for Education UPCs from over 2,500 participating products earn points for the whole school that can be redeemed by Mr. Romer for Arts, Athletics, and Academics merchandise found in the Labels for Education catalog. Collection sheets are available in the school

office.

Community Bench Project- This program is offered through Green Tree Plastics in Evansville to involve young people in recycling and community service. Caps from household recycling can be made into benches for our community. Any plastic cap that is clean and free of metal may be donated. 400 pounds + $200 = One Bench. A collection bin is located in the school lobby.

Printer and Copier Cartridges- Send in all types of empty printer and copier ink cartridges to help the fourth grade classes earn store credit from STAPLES.

Pop tabs may also be turned in to help support the operating costs of the Ronald McDonald House of Indiana. The House provides lodging for families while their children receive life-saving treatment at Indianapolis-area hospitals, primarily Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health. Please place them in an envelope or plastic bag.

The Swoop Scoop

“Swoop” is a nickname for our Title I Program. Students in grades K-3 may qualify for extra reading

support each semester thanks to a federally funded program for which JGSC qualifies.

Our groups are led by our dedicated Swoop Crew. Monday through Thursday, our instructional aides

work within K-3rd grade reading classes. Some students work in the Swoop room in the afternoons

for short periods. The students work in consistent small groups with reading lessons led by an

instructional aide. Our Swoop aides are Mrs. Craft, Mrs. MacLeod, Mrs. Tibbs, and Ms. Zoellner. Mrs.

Amy Weiss is the Title I teacher at NLES. Mrs. Weiss alternates between groups in order to work with

each student several times throughout the semester.

Along with the small groups, our Swoop Crew will host some special

events this year. Swoopers and their parents are invited to our Camp

Swoop on Thursday, September 17 from 5:30-7:00. An invitation was

mailed to those families. RSVP as soon as possible. It is sure to be an

enjoyable evening!
