Health and Fitness



HEALTH/FITNESS CONTRACT

  • An important characteristic of CAM Academy is the ability to pursue learning contracts that provide parents and students the opportunity to complete academic requirements outside of the classroom.

  • In the third grade, the parents and students are responsible to complete the Health/Fitness activities. The minimum requirement is a minimum of 3 hours of combined Health and Fitness activities per week.

  • You will find the Health and Fitness Log in Google Classroom

    • A Health/Fitness week begins on Friday and ends Thursday night. The log is due every Friday. If there is a Friday holiday, then the log is due on Thursday.

      • Parents fill in the activity log with a listing of skills and activities. Please do not write in activities that include the words "teacher," "class," "lesson".

      • Please add the amount of time spent on both Health and Fitness activities and enter it on the log.

      • To demonstrate growth in physical fitness, the children will complete fitness challenges in September, February, and May. The record sheets for these assessments will be given to you.
