Grading -
TRACK ATTACK is a monthly program that measures the increase in cardiovascular endurance month to month. Students run the track for "straws/sticks" and are trying to move up to the 100 lap club by the end of the year. They decorate and create an ICON for our massive blue wall and move their RACE CAR up the leader boards as they finish each TRACK ATTACK!
Grading System - (Laps below are on a SINGLE day)
8 plus grade level - Bouncy Ball
7 or more - E/A
6 - S/B
5 - N/C
0-4 - U/D (Make-up Track Attack day will be required)
Grading PoliciesPhysical Education
Information
During PE, your child will participate in a variety of activities to enhance their fitness and wellness, increase their coordination, and develop teamwork, cooperation, and sportsmanship skills. We will also continue the C.A.T.C.H program. The C.A.T.C.H program’s primary focus is to provide quality physical education in which students engage in moderate to vigorous physical activities.
The grades will be for Participation and Skill. Students in third through fifth grade will receive an E (Excellent), S (Satisfactory), N (Needs Improvement), U (Unsatisfactory) for their Participation and Skill Grade.
Students in Kindergarten through second grade will receive two comments from PE/Wellness. One for participation and another for concepts/skills.
Kinder-2nd:
All students will allow learning to take place by fulfilling these P.E. expectations:
Be Safe
Be Respectful
Be Responsible
When a student chooses not to cooperate the following consequences are in place:
1. Yellow Card warning (In most cases, several verbal warnings may be given prior to the documented warning)
2. Red Card - Eagle Check - When a student receives an Eagle Check it (each Eagle Check) affects the amount of time the student has earned during our monthly "FUN FRIDAY." This is only a small amount of time where we conference with each student to help them understand how to handle each situation next time.
* Referral to the office - Any physical situation similar to a fight is an automatic referral.
Please discuss our policies with your child and stress the importance of a positive classroom environment. We truly appreciate your cooperation and look forward to a great school year!
Sincerely yours in fitness and health,
Coach Burns
