Week of 3/7/11-3/11/11 (3Q- Week 7)

6th Graders,

WEEK RECAP.....
The week started off with the 800 Meter race on Monday. Tuesday was a short period due to the district writing test, therefore, I handed back papers and talked about the PE 101 test. On Wednesday, another rainout, all 6th graders went into the rock wall and watched track and field instructional videos and discussed the T & F unit. On Thursday, instead of high jump, we did a fitness circuit in the multi use room. On Friday, we had day 1 of hurdles (we will finish up hurdles on Monday).

COMMENT ON MY BLOG FOR EXTRA CREDIT....
From now on, overtime that you comment on my weekly blog, you will receive 2 extra credit points. Basically, when you comment, you just say that you read the blog. Include name, period and roll call. To comment, you click the comment section at the end of the blog as an "Anonymous" user. When you comment, I will receive an email and then you will get the credit in Pinnacle.

IMPORTANT REMINDER- 2 MILE MAKE UP ON FRIDAY AFTER SCHOOL.
Important reminder, this Friday after school, March 11th, will be the 2 mile make up. It is required that you make up the mile with me and not on your own time. I am expecting anybody who missed the run and wants credit for it to meet me after school. Run will start promptly at 3. Meet at my roll call numbers.

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK (AOW)
This week's article is titled, "Nutrients for a healthy heart" As some of you may know, heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Although some heart conditions are hereditary and hard to avoid, there is a lot that you can start to do now, through diet and exercise, that can help prolong you life. This article talks about the nutrients that are good for your heart as well as some that are pretty bad. Check it out and learn something. Complete the extra assignment and you will have the chance to explain. I have a good extra credit assignment related to your AOW, check it out HERE.
