In PE this week, students have been trying out Speed Stacks sport stacking cups for the first time! Sport stacking is a fun, fast-paced activity that helps improve hand-eye coordination, focus, and dexterity. Students are learning to stack and unstack cups in specific sequences as quickly as they can, competing with themselves and others to beat their best times. It's been exciting to see how quickly they’ve picked up the new skill and students can expect to use this new equipment throughout the school year.
