Dear Parents,
During
quarter one all of our 8th Grade PE students completed the first
component of our grade 8 Heath Education program, (‘Substance Misuse &
Abuse Prevention’). Each student also completed a series of fitness and
biometric tests. Prior to the Christmas break students will analyze their
fitness data, graph it against age appropriate norms and use the results to
select some personal fitness goals for the remainder of the year. Other
curriculum areas covered by all students during quarter one included the first
component of our grade 8 ‘sports unit’ (Badminton).
As
we move into quarter two and beyond each class will engage in the same
activities but at different times during the course of the year. Please have
your child walk you through the information on their ‘MyDragonNet’
‘PE&Health’ page so you can view the program schedule, unit materials and
assessment criteria as rubrics or exemplar videos.
If
you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email.
Kind regards,
Fiona White
Middle School
Physical Education Department
