Health Classes

Dear Parents, Students, and Teachers;

The Health Education program at St. Lawrence School is an opportunity to provide a unique experience in which we blend together many aspects of our Health and Physical Education programs. This year new textbooks are being added to the program in Grades 1-6. Grades 1,2 will do all of their reading during class. Grades 3-6 will have short reading assignments outside of class that will be posted weekly on the "Class area" that follows this message. A related workbook activity will also be assigned with readings. Grades 3-6 will also take a short quizz/test at the end of each chapter following a classroom review and a worksheet being sent home. Testing is not the central focus of this program and student participation in class which is the result of reading the assigned readings before class will be most important. Health Education is first and foremost a lifetime learning experience for our students. Grading will reward effort, participation and cooperation first. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. I do ask that Grades 2-6 have a folder for Health class. Also Grades 3-6 should have a 1 subject notebook.

Thank you!
