Handout small medium large The physical education program addresses the student’s fundamental need for regular physical activity to remain healthy. Our program is directed toward developing students as physically educated persons who: (1) have mastered the necessary skills to participate confidently in many different forms of physical activities, (2) have an understanding of the rules, strategies and etiquette of various games, (3) value physical fitness and personal hygiene, (4) develop an understanding of the need for appropriate nutrition and exercise, and (5) promote attitudes and behaviors that reduce health risks. We hold high expectations for student performance at Lee Middle School. In order for students to participate safely and effectively during class activities, they need to be dressed in appropriate clothing. Proper attire at Lee is the Lee logo shorts, Lee logo T-shirt, and tennis shoes that are laced and tied properly. When the weather turns cold, students may wear sweat pants and/or sweat shirts. Sweats may be the following colors: blue, grey or white. (Reminder: Sweat pants that zip or button from the ankle to the waist are not allowed due to safety concerns.) A Physical Education staff member will print your son or daughter’s last name and first initial on each article of clothing. The Lee shirt and shorts are available through the Physical Education Department. The cost for both items is $25, the shirt is $15 and the shorts are also $10. Loaner clothes will be available should your child “forget” their clothing. The student will need to check with their teacher to obtain loaner clothes. Students will be expected to dress daily and may be excused from class activities on an as needed basis only. Please write a note explaining the type of activity your son/daughter should be excused from and the dates to be excused, as well as a number where you can be reached during the day. (Under the Education Code, a student may only be excused from an activity for three consecutive days, after which a written excuse from a doctor is required.) Each student will be issued their own combination lock and gym locker to lock up their clothing. They are encouraged to keep their combination to themselves, and their locker locked at all times. Students will be charged for the replacement of lost locks ($8.00). No jewelry may be worn during P.E. class, students must lock jewelry in their lockers. A plastic container with a lid is recommended to hold jewelry. When your son/daughter has “forgotten” their P.E. clothes, the P.E. Department will provide a clean uniform for them to wear for tone class period. During a six week period, we will allow clothes to be borrowed two times without a penalty. On the third day and any day after that, the student will receive detention from their teacher. Should your son/daughter refuse the loaner clothes, the following consequences will result: 1st time - Parent contact and 2 hours of Saturday School. 2nd time - Parent contact and 4 hours of Saturday School. 3rd time - Student will be sent to the Vice Principal and suspended. In an attempt to promote personal hygiene and in keeping with the California Administration Code, Title V, Section 802 in regard to student hygiene, if your child chooses to shower after physical education class, a towel will be provided for your son/daughter’s use. We also recommend he/she use a stick or roll-on deodorant. Please remember that no spray cans or glass containers are allowed in the locker room. Grading: Progress reports are issued every six weeks. Your son/ daughter’s grade will be based on their performance in the following areas: Movement Skills and Movement Knowledge 1. Motor learning and biomechanics 2. Exercise physiology 3. Health and skill related fitness 4. Self & peer assessments 5. Skills tests Social Skills and Personal Development 1. Responsibility for equipment and property 2. Problem solving 3. Cooperative learning activities 4. Communication skills 5. Self Motivation Cognitive Skills and Development 1. Written tests 2. Portfolios 3. Writing and reading assignments 4. Projects 5. Goal setting Each unit will last approximately three weeks. “Fitness for Life” is a slogan that we use here at Lee. As a means of encouraging students to adopt this personal motto, special recognition is given to students who demonstrate exemplary fitness and movement skills on the President’s Council on Physical Fitness Test Battery, as well as on the State of California’s Fitnessgram Test Battery and our own Wildcat Fitness Award events. The following steps for success will help you be the best you can be: 1. Come to class with a positive, “can-do” attitude. 2. Be at roll call on time and fully dressed in the appropriate attire. 3. Make sure lock/locker is locked. 4. Use appropriate language at all times. 5. Treat other people and class equipment with care and respect. 6. Follow directions of ALL physical education teachers the first time. 7. Report all injuries to your teacher immediately. 8. Complete all class responsibilities and required work. 9. Be responsible for all medical excuses, notes and readmits. 10. Try! 11. Have Fun! We hope that this letter is of assistance to you.
