7-8th Grade PE

2022 Physical Education 8

Welcome back!! 

Locks and Lockers will be issued the first week of school. 

Students will be expected to dress down for Physical Education each day.  Dressing down is a Change of clothes (clothes not worn to school).  Appropriate T-shirt, athletic shorts and appropriate gym shoes. The Les Bois PE uniform is not required but it is available to purchase.   This is a factor that has an impact on your grade!!  Bring school issued Chromebook to class with you every day.

Message from the Boise School District

“Any student who has a need or desire for increased privacy, regardless of the underlying reason, will be provided with a reasonable alternative through the counselor, nurse or another trusted adult.  Any alternative arrangements will be provided in a way that protects the student’s privacy and safety for all students.”

Daily 

Each student starts the semester with a 100% daily grade.  It is your responsibility to keep that percentage.  Each time you fail to meet daily requirements (on time, dressed down, participate with sportsmanship and an honest effort) your grade will drop 5 points.

Workouts 

Each student starts each quarter with a 95% Workout grade.  It is your responsibility to keep that percentage.  These grades can go up with exceptional work ethic and perfect technique on shown lifts and exercises.  For each in class workout  missed, your grade will be dropped 10 points.  These can be made up easily by doing a Missed Workout Makeup. This is an out of class makeup.  The makeup sheet can be found on this website (below) and in the Google classroom. Make sure to follow all the directions and guidelines for missing workouts makeups.  

Written 

Students will have opportunities to show knowledge of concepts covered in class via written tests and reflections.

Fitness Testing

Students will participate in at least three fitness test cycles during the semester.  Keeping an up to date Fitness Test Sheet with appropriate goals is an expectation.  Student's grade will come from HOW the test was done far more than the actual test scores.  In other words, your graded on effort and technique more than ability to score well on fitness tests.

Skill 

Students will be taught and shown proper technique on many aspects of movement.  Grades will be earned by demonstrating ability to show proper techniques of lifts, exercises and activity skills.
