September Newsletter
GIORGI’S GYM
We started out the year with swimming. Many thanks to the administration and the Village of Hemingford for making it possible to use the pool!
The last week in August was preliminary fitness testing: mile, sit-ups, push-ups, and flexibility. We are going to focus on fitness this year so please make sure your child gets plenty of exercise at home and eats right.
Grading
Kindergarten through Third Graders receive a behavior and participation grade: 4-exceeds expectations, 3-consistently meets expectations, 2-inconsistently meets expectations, 1-does not meet expectations.
Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Graders receive a percentage grade.
I have 2 rules in Physical Education:
1. Try Your Guts Out
2. Have Big Time Manners
Please encourage your child to do their best in everything they do!
Website
Be sure and check the school’s website for up-to-date happenings and photos from PE classes. Look under Physical Ed. on the left hand side. Remember that there are also fitness calendars available there. It’s a great way to keep your kids moving after school.
