Hello! I
can’t believe that it’s the end of the year, it seems like I was just
introducing myself to you all!
Well it’s been a whirlwind year and I couldn’t have asked for more from
you and your students. We recently
finished our tennis unit and are wrapping up the year with fitness testing
while learning some classic dances like the Electric Slide and some new ones
like the Cupid Shuffle. I am proud
to say that, over all, the fitness scores of Franklin students have shown GIANT
improvements since the beginning of the year! They worked hard and it shows!
As I have said before, it has been an absolute
pleasure to have spent the past school year teaching your students and I can’t
wait to do it again in the Fall. As
always, remember that I have an open invitation out to you all to come in and
visit your student’s PE class. The
more the merrier! If you are
interested in what we are doing each week check out Franklin’s web site with a
page dedicated to PE. It has
calendars, pictures, homework assignments, extra credit, and even this
newsletter.
Hope to see you soon! Stay active, stay healthy, and always have fun!

Summer Time Challenge
Attached
you will find a “Summer Time Challenge,” which is a challenge to you and your
family to stay active this summer.
We live in a beautiful and diverse part of the country and world so I
challenge you to take advantage of it!
It’s pretty simple: put your family’s name at the top of the paper and
stick it in a place where you won’t lose it, like the fridge. Next, for every place you are active
this summer write down where you were, what you did, and how long you did it
for. Then at the beginning of the
2010 school year return it back to me with your parent’s signature at the
bottom. Let’s see how far we can
go and how active we can be! Keep
up the good work!
