The K-8 Physical Education Department is in the final year of the Carol M. White PEP grant. This grant requires us to gather information each year about our students’ moderate to vigorous physical activity, outside of school time. During your child’s physical education class, students are recording the activity that they did the night before. Please discuss moderate to vigorous activities that your child was involved in, so they are prepared to record on their data sheet. We will be recording what activity they did from the evening of September 20th-September 26th.
- Moderate activity is defined as, “Activity that results in an increase in breathing or heart rate (walking briskly, dancing, swimming, or biking on a level terrain.)
- Vigorous activity is defined as, Activity that results in hard breathing or sweating (jogging, high-impact aerobic dancing, swimming continuous laps, or biking uphill).
Thank you for your continued support of our physical education program.
