Junior High 8th period PE student/parent letter

Mrs.
Trampel’s Junior High PE classes- Period 8
I am really
excited to teach junior high students again.
It has been 6 years since I last had junior high students in a PE
class. What an exciting year it is going
to be in physical education during 8th period PE classes. The room that we have in the gym and
sometimes the outside field will allow us to do varied activities and increase
student’s success. Physical Education is
essential in every student’s life. It
not only develops you physically, but also cognitively and emotionally. It is our hope with a diverse curriculum that
you will strive to be physically active once you leave Belmond-Klemme
Junior/Senior High School. Our overall
goal is to teach you to be lifelong learners in physical activity.
Expectations:
·
Follow
directions first time given
·
Be
respectful to peers, teachers, self, and equipment
·
Keep
hands, feet, and all other objects to yourself
·
Work
hard and go above your potential
·
Have
fun
Consequences:
·
Loss
of points for the day and/or possible detention
Grading:
You will be
assessed in a variety of ways
·
Participation/Effort-20
points
·
Respect-20
points
·
Being
prepared for class-10points
·
Written/skill
tests-varies
All students
need to come to class ready to participate according to the activities for
class. This would usually mean shorts,
t-shirt and running shoes. Be in the gym walking and ready to go by 2:35. After that, you will be counted tardy.
Absences:
To be able
to get a passing grade, most absences will need to be made up. Check with me on what you can do to make up
class. Sometimes what we do in class
could be made up. Otherwise there are
several examples listed below as to what can be used for makeup. Basic rule is that school athletic practices
and competitions cannot be used for makeup.
Relatives cannot sign you off for a makeup.
Examples of make ups for class:
Fitness center workout, golfing,
bowling, dance classes, community service, Jazzercise classes, swimming, weightlifting
at school, etc.
Medical Excuses:
A medical excuse must be signed by a
physician to excuse you from activity in a PE class. If you do not have one, an alternative
activity will be given for you to do.
I’m only at
this building during 8th hour.
Otherwise, you can find me at Jacobson Elementary from 7:20-2:20. If you have questions at any time this
semester, please email me at kay.trampel@bkcsd.org or call me at extension 353 and
leave a message. I keep my blog updated
weekly so you can check my blog called “Jacobson Elementary Gymshorts” to keep
informed about what’s going on in 8th period PE class. It will be listed under the Jacobson
Elementary Blogs with my name.
