Welcome Back!!

For the first few days, students will be explained the rules and expectations for Physical Education this year.  A rule sheet will be sent home and parents/guardians will be expected to sign it.  Also, students' heights and weights will be taken within the first few weeks of school for the nurse.  

For the first unit, which will last about 3 weeks, students will be taking part in a cardiovascular exercise unit that involves walking and jogging around the track.  Students will be timed in the 1 mile jog at the end of the unit, but a set time will be be expected out of students.  Like everything we do, as long as the students give their best effort, they will receive full credit for the unit.  

  

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.  STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE ENGAGED IN ACTIVITY.  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!
