September Fitness Challenge

Reminders:
- Students need to come prepared for physical education with proper foot attire and uniform.  Students may wear regular school uniform or plain navy sweat pants and a plain gray or Quest t-shirt.  Girls who wear skirts need to have shorts on underneath.  If a student forgets their shoes, they are able to borrow a pair from my shoe bin. 

-Water bottles are not permissible in P.E. class.  Classroom teachers will allow students to use the drinking fountain at the conclusion of the 35 minute P.E. class period. 

-Students who have asthma or other chronic physically limiting conditions need to communicate this to me so that the necessary precautions/accommodations can be made. 

Classes this month will be reviewing gymnasium expectations, practicing safety, developing personal and spatial awareness and participating in a fitness challenge.  The fitness challenge in September is a 4 minute run.  Students will try to jog for 4 minutes without stopping, or walking.  Students that win the challenge are awarded with a glitter toe token and a necklace which they can keep the token on.  I will also take a group picture of the winners which you can look for in the front hallway on the P.E. bulletin board (located near bathrooms).  There is a different challenge each month that students can earn different tokens from and add to their necklace.  Replacement necklaces and tokens cost $2. 

Any questions or concerns, please email, call, or send in a note. 

-Have a healthy day!
