| COURSE DESCRIPTION | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ������� Hello, let me introduce myself, I am Mr. Tippetts and I am your students physical education teacher. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| �� ���� My philosophy about PE is that PE is as important as any class because a healthy body helps ensure that students will perform at their best during their academic subject. I also believe that all students can succeed in and pass PE.� That does not mean that it is a guaranteed� "A".� Students who participate fully each day will easily pass the class with a "C" or better.� However like any other class, in order to receive an "A" or a "B", they must demonstrate an understanding and knowledge of the different activities and concepts. They must also demonstrate an understanding of how to achieve fitness for life.� Students will also be expected to demonstrate improvement in skills.� I also expect highly skilled students to help other students achieve these goals. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ������� Students will be expected to keep information that they have received throughout the course, as there will be a semester final each semester.� Some information such as bones, muscles, and stretching will appear on each test and quiz.� | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Homework | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ������� Aside from studying for tests and quizzes and practicing skills, homework will generally not take very long. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Exercising at least three days a week will also be required as homework.� | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hopefully students will learn to appreciate a variety of different sports and activities and more importantly, they will better understand how their bodies work and how to maintain their bodies so that they may lead a healthy life. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
