Hello Tiger Nation!

We hope that you had a wonderful holiday break and are having a happy new year! We are having a great 2021 here at The Lawson Academy! The students have continued to master complex body movements during our daily workouts in their physical education instruction in conjunction with gaining wisdom in relation to pertinent topics dealing with social emotional learning. We have been discussing the dangers of illegal performance enhancing substances regarding athletic competition, social and emotional implications of substance abuse, resistance skills regarding harmful substances, as well as, identifying well thought out options concerning the decision making process. The students have continued to work so hard and we are so proud of them! Thank you for your continued support concerning your students and our Lawson Academy!

Hello Tiger Nation!

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful week! The students have been hard at work refining their minds and bodies so as to achieve the best version of themselves. We have covered several topics along the way such as healthy eating, identifying hopes and dreams, giving and earning respect, time management skills, and creating a positive attitude from within. The students have also been engaging in a range of various workouts throughout the week as well! We have stressed that all of the aspects learned in this class can be applied to the lives of the students to become successful individuals academically and in everyday life. I have placed a video down below to one of the many motivational videos that the students have had the opportunity to analyze. Please feel free to watch it and maybe even start up a conversation with your child about their thoughts regarding this video. Thank you for your continued support concerning your students and our Lawson Academy!

Hello Tiger Nation!

We are having a great year here at The Lawson Academy! We are into our third week of classes and have been learning so much in such a short amount of time. Not only have the students been gaining knowledge with their minds but have also been engaging in several body movement workouts to improve physical fitness. During week one we focused on understanding the different types of aerobic and anaerobic body movements as well as the benefits of exercise regarding overall health and wellness . On the Social Emotional Learning side of the coin, we explored three critical key areas involving communication, decision making skills, and goal setting. The following week the students studied the muscular and nervous systems in addition to confidence building strategies and self-talk. This week we have delved into the world of fitness and all of the elements that it encompasses as well as verbal and non-verbal communication. Next week, we will explore muscular strength in greater detail as it pertains to the elements of fitness and take a deeper look into making the right decisions or choices in everyday life. The students are working so hard and are showing a determination to learn and grow! Thank you for your continued support concerning your students and our Lawson Academy!
