Greetings Neillsville Students,
This week we are going to learn and play the game of 4-square.
4-square is a great outside game that is great for all levels of abilities and all ages. All you need to play 4-square is to have some room. You can use black top, concrete sidewalk or drive way, or even on grass. You will also need a ball that will bounce, like a kickball or similar ball. Also, you will need something to draw lines with, you can use chalk or spray paint (make sure you have mom and dad help).
4-square can be played with 4 or more people. I have attached a short video for you to watch and learn how to play the game.

Have fun learning and playing the game of 4-square and I'd love to see some pictures or videos.

The goal of the Physical Education program at Neillsville
Elementary School is to provide students with a basic
foundation of motor and manipulative skills, an
understanding of the importance of physical fitness and the
opportunity to develop effective personal and social skills.
Students will be provided with the skills necessary to make
decisions about physical activity for their own health,
enjoyment, challenge, self-expression and social interaction.
Our goal is to promote a positive learning environment that meets the needs and
abilities of students and encourages them to maintain a physically active lifestyle.

Student Expectations:
Students must wear sneakers properly
laced or secured with velcro made for use
on the gymnasium floor. Spiked cleats,
hiking or thick bottom boots, shoes with
heals, non-supporting slip-ons with or
without backs are not permitted for
physical activity. Safe participation
requires students to be dressed
appropriately. It is important that your
child wears loose clothing and refrains
from wearing any jewelry that might get
lost or broken, or cause injury.
