Message from Ms. Maloney
Dear Students & (Parents),
I miss you all very much, and hopefully I will see you again in a few months. Since we won't be having P.E. for a while, I am including P.E. and health activities to fulfill movement minutes. Being active is important for your physical, emotional and mental health. I am including activities that you can do on your own or with your family. If you have any questions please email me at [email protected] I will upload a video once a week, so check back to see What is Ms. Maloney up to!! I may even show up live in some of your classrooms. Stay Active! |
About MeIn case you didn't already know, I have been teaching at Dirksen for 6 years, but have been teaching for 10 years total.
I love being active and teaching P.E. as well as coaching Dirksen soccer and basketball. I love soccer and have played since I was 6 years old. In my free time I like to travel, play sports, be outside, go to movies, and spend time with my family. Check out the Helpful links for more activities and cool experiences. |
