Hello St. Anthony of Padua Families,
This past week was our first official week of PE classes for all grades except kindergarten. The students all did well navigating this mini heat wave outdoors. They all seemed very enthusiastic during their first class this week. I am looking forward to a healthy and active school year with all grade levels.
I spoke with grades 3-8 this past week about daily PE Homework which includes Push-Ups (regular and modified versions) Sit-Ups, and stretching. I do ask that you please remind them to do them daily Monday-Friday. Since we only have PE once a week, it is important for students to stay active daily. This assignment should not take longer than 5 minutes per day, and will help them during their fitness testing which will take place during all three trimesters.
Grades 3-5 are expected to work on doing 5 push-ups, 8 sit-ups, and stretching daily at home. Grades 6-8 are expected to work on 10 push-Ups, 12 Sit- Ups, and stretching daily at home.
Please make sure you sign and return the last page of the PE Syllabus to me by 9/5/19 if you have not yet done so.
Thank You,
Mrs. Rubalcava
