August 26 - September 16

Welcome Back! 
1st P.E. Unit of the 2013 - 2014 School Year - - - Cardiovascular Fitness (1 Mile Unit)


          Students will take part in lead up cardiovascular activities on the track such as walking, jogging, and running.  Students will also be timed in the 1 Mile jog/run (4 laps).  Times will be kept and extra credit may be given for outstanding times on the mile, but grades are based solely on effort.  All students are different and I do not expect everyone to be track stars.  Therefore, no set time will be given as a benchmark that students must meet.  Students will also take their heart rates and will be exposed to physical activities that promote a healthy lifestyle. 



All activities in physical education are designed to keep students engaged in fitness activities that promote a healthy lifestyle and life-long participation. 

(IF THE WEATHER DOESN'T PERMIT OR THE IS NOT ENOUGH GYM SPACE FOR A GIVEN ACTIVTY, STUDENTS WILL TAKE PART IN AlLTERNATIVE ACTIVITIES IN THE GYMNASIUM SUCH AS BASKETBALL, WALKING, BADMINTON, DODGEBALL ETC.)

PE GRADES ARE BASED ON PARTICIPATION.  SIMPLY JUST CHANGING YOUR CLOTHES DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING FULL CREDIT!!!!!!!

Missed classes are counted as zeros, so make sure classes are being made up!
