The 9th grade girls are really starting to get comfortable while the 8th grade boys are really into the swing of things in health. The updates are as follows:<br /><br /><br />7th PE - The students will watch a documentary based off of the Miracle on Ice (1980). I look forward to having the kids learn about the biggest moment in hockey history and maybe in American Sports. This is an in class assignment and if they are not in school that day they are exempt. <br /><br />8th Health - Chapter 1-2 and 1-3 was due this past week! As always (if lost) a copy can be found on the health page. This coming week will be our first test (eek) and I am excited to see how the kids do!<br /><br />9th PE - The fit 4 life girls had their first quiz (on sis before the end of the week) and we are starting Nutrition. I look forward to intricately discussing nutrition and having the girls take a firm grasp on the subject. <br /><br />As some of you know I am an avid Patriots fan and being from New England I feel its in my blood :) I hope you all get to watch the Super Bowl and please please please dont root for the Giants!<br /><br />Take Care,<br /><br />-Mr Lansing<br /><br />GIRLS (9th PE):<br /><br />http://news.yahoo.com/90-days-without-cell-phone-email-social-media-015300257.html<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1348664987472864136-1943785241527488082?l=earlylightpe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mr. Lansingnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348664987472864136.post-21045265058296996252009-08-24T12:57:00.000-07:002010-08-16T17:57:59.154-07:00<span style="font-family:arial;">Welcome to the Early Light Academy Physical Education website. At Early Light Academy we encourage and promote healthy lifestyles 365 days a year. ELA PE is proud to offer 7th and 8th physical education as well as an 8th grade team sports elective. New for this year is Fitness for Life, which is a 9th grade only class focusing on individualized lifelong fitness. <br /><br />Working with the Core Curriculum developed by the Utah State Board of Education. Early Light Academy PE has crea</span><span style="font-family:arial;">ted a unique blend of curriculum combined with current theories of kinesiology, exercise physiology and social interaction. These 3 elements are laced within a friendly, encouraging, challenging and successful environ</span><span style="font-family:arial;">ment that Early Light Academy is </span><span style="font-family:arial;">known for. </span>Our Mission statement is as follows:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:georgia;" >Early Light Academy Physical Education emphasizes success and growth through individual challenges, interaction, cooperative accomplishments and problem solving while maintaining an undertone of life long fitness in</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:georgia;" > a non-threatening environment.<br /><br />Mike</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-family:georgia;"> Lansing</span><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Early Light Physical Education</span><br /><br /></span>The grading procedures can be found following the links on the right hand side of the screen or by going to each individual grade page. Homework, class assignments and projects will also be posted on each grade page to aid students during the year.<br /><br />There is a dress code required for Physical Education class. Each student is required to wear a grey t-shirt (school appropriate logo is accepted), dark blue shorts and gym appropriate sneakers (any sole color is allowed). These rules also apply for cold weather clothing.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpMDuadsLzI/AAAAAAAAAAM/KRHbhtCTKQg/s1600-h/patriotsT.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpMDuadsLzI/AAAAAAAAAAM/KRHbhtCTKQg/s200/patriotsT.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373642876295851826" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpME4KQwfhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/SEKPkZDg-7A/s1600-h/duke.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpME4KQwfhI/AAAAAAAAAAc/SEKPkZDg-7A/s200/duke.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373644143256960530" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Another requirement for 7th,8th and 9th grade Physical Education is the "Fitness Test Journal" (7th) and "<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpMYtyJefoI/AAAAAAAAAA8/Jxgu04iYFmo/s1600-h/journal.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 190px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BVWJFJ2CTC8/SpMYtyJefoI/AAAAAAAAAA8/Jxgu04iYFmo/s200/journal.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373665955217833602" border="0" /></a>Health Journal" (8th/9th). The journals cosmetically are the same however each will be used differently for class. The Health Journal (8th/9th) will be brought to each class while the Fitness Test Journal (7th) will be brought each day but will not be as intensive. The recommended journal is the <a href="http://http://www.mead.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product3_10051_10006_124767_-1_false_10051#Tabs">Mead Black Marble Journal</a>. However, any blank journal will meet the requirement.<br /><br /><br /><br />I am excited about the upcoming year and look forward to teaching the students of Early Light about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
