6th Graders,
We are starting the 2nd week of the new Quarter. Last week felt like chaos with the weather, but, I wanted to let you know that you did a fantastic job adapting and behaving. Thanks. Also, we were able to accomplish a lot with Line Dance and I feel like we are ready for testing.
WEEK AT A GLANCE
Mon- Line Dance Testing
Tuesday- Line Dance Testing
Wednesday- To Be Determined (forecasted to rain)
Thursday- Complete Line Dance Testing
Friday- To Be Determined (forecasted to rain)
To see more detail on what the week will look like, go to your 6th Grade Google Calendar.
WHAT UNIT ARE WE IN?
We are finishing our final week of Line Dance. All line dances have been taught and you are now ready to be tested this week. Testing will take place on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.
On Thursday of last week, you learned by far the hardest dance of them all, the Alulnelul. Please work on practicing this dance. Use the Line Dance Study Guide to help you out. You might want to change the wording on the study guide to match more of the way that you learned it in class.
Please go to my Line Dance page for more information.
By the way, there are some good YouTube videos of the Alulnelul being danced. Just go to you YouTube and put Alulnelul as the search. Watch some of the videos.
CRATE CARRIERS
It is that time for me to select new Crate Carriers for the 3rd Quarter. I am looking for 2 male and 2 female carriers for 3rd, 4th and 5th periods. If you are interested, please send an email to me directly. I will select based on first come, first serve basis. My email is
sickler_judson@cusdk8.org
As a crate carrier, you get the following reward choices:
a) waive a run AND fitness day anytime during the 3rd Quarter
or
b) waive a homework assignment anytime during the 3rd Quarter
or
c) take 20 points of extra credit assigned at the end of the quarter
WHAT IS OUR RUN THIS WEEK?
Be ready, you will be doing your first mile run of 2010.
WHAT FITNESS ACTIVITY ARE WE DOING THIS WEEK?
More than likely we will have a fitness day this week, however, it will depend entirely on whether we finish our dance testing or not. Also, where and what we will do for fitness depends on what facility I have on Friday.
DID YOU FILL OUT YOUR E-LOGS?
I have a brand new e-Run Log Page for the 3rd quarter. Instead of filling out a general e-Run Log after a run, you will be filling out a specific e-Run log depending on the run that you do. I have created a new e-Run Log page, please check it out. You WILL NOT have to fill out a run for every run you do. Most runs do have a log.
e-Fitness logs are not extra credit. You DO NOT have to fill them out anymore this year, however, if you choose to fill it out, you will receive 1 extra credit point for every week that you do fill it out.
IS HOMEWORK ASSIGNED THIS WEEK?
Yes, I posted HW #1 for the 3rd Quarter. The article is on Contraindicated Exercises. It is due on Monday, 2/1 at Roll Call.
ARE THERE ANY ASSIGNMENTS DUE THIS WEEK?
No, your only real assignment is to study and practice for the Line Dance Testing this week.
I have several extra credit assignments posted that you can choose from on my Extra Credit Page. Please check them out. Most are easy to do and will be a great way to help keep your grade in the A/B range.
Check out your Line Dance Page for a new extra credit assignment. This is your last week to perform it. Come in at brunch Monday-Thursday and perform it with your small group, entertain me, and you will receive a good chunk of credit.
Type 1 Diabetes is your "Word of the Week". You will be required to use a new template for the words. This is your new WOW webpage where you will download the template. I will also list the words on this page as well.
