Physical Education
Mr. Reiman
Mr. Reiman’s primary responsibility at The Howard School is to teach Physical Education. We feel very strongly about incorporating P.E. into our daily curriculum. It’s one of the components that makes Mae Carden’s philosophy of “Teaching the whole child” possible. Mr. Reiman says, “Sports teach us a lot about what we need to know in life: good sportsmanship, cooperative play, teamwork and a positive attitude.”
For the younger children P.E. is vital; it gives them much needed time to release some energy, and to start developing a sense of their physical being. The older grades are learning to rely on each other and support one another while developing their skills. Physical Education is a graded class in middle school, though the grade does not reflect physical ability alone; it reflects sportsmanship, teamwork and character.”
Mr. Reiman has been involved in sports his whole life. He received his undergraduate degree in Geology but went on to get his Masters in Kinesiology with an emphasis on Teaching and Coaching. He has been putting those skills to good use since 2007 at The Howard School. Mr. Reiman also teaches our 5th through 8th graders Geology and provides some instruction in Science and Literature.
When Mr. Reiman is not teaching at the school, he is coaching children’s soccer or giving surf lessons through his summer camp programs.
