Dear 3rd and 4th Grade Students and Parents/Guardians,
As an attempt to encourage students to be active outside of school time, I have created the calendar that is on the back of this letter. For every weekday during the month of November there is a suggested fitness activity. Students may perform the activities listed or another form of exercise that he/she enjoys. If the student performs the activity that is listed in the box I would like an adult to initial that box. If the student performs another exercise, please write it on the correct date and initial the box. Any day the student may substitute 2 sets of 10 push-ups and 2 sets of 10 sit-ups for the activity listed.
At the end of the month I will collect the calendars. All students that have completed the calendar will be able to choose an item from my prize box! This activity is to encourage physical activity while having fun. It is great when families find an exercise activity that they can enjoy together and when children play actively with others.
If you have any questions about the calendar or how students can be more active outside of school time, please feel free to contact me anytime.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Morrison
Physical Education Teacher
