Today's work

Just got in from today's PE classes.

Very good day today.

First Hour kids were excellent, everyone remembered their PE clothes, and they did an excellent job of participating.  Rich M. and Hailey P. did a great job during the fitness run, leading the rest of the class.

Second hour was also good.  Very good participation, and everyone remembered their clothes today.  Leaders of the fitness run for 2nd hour were:  Shantel B. and Jacob L.  Not everyone ran the entire time, but it looked like we had pretty good effort.

Third Hour:  We had our first student forget their clothes today... if he forgets next Tuesday, he'll have a detention in the coming week.  Decent effort by this class, but not as good as First and Second hour, we had a few students who really didn't want to push themselves.  3 Standouts during the fitness run were:  Jacob L., Jana I., and Cody S.

Seventh Hour:  Did not have a very good class today.  Six students in 7th forgot to bring their clothes to PE today.  That's a lot.  Also we did not have good participation during the fitness run.  Many of the students walked when they were supposed to be running, and not late into it either.  One minute in, we had people walking.  Our top performers today in the fitness run were:  Rashaun P., Joden M., and Tynia Z. 

HS Personal Fitness:  Did some form 40's today for cardiovascular work, then went into the weight room and demonstrated knowledge of the squat rack.  Most of the students also worked on Dips.  There was quite a bit of bench pressing going on.

We made some really good headway on our new PE grading Scale and Grade book today.

I will unveil that in tomorrow's blog.
