MR. NIEVES

PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHER

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

Welcome to 2020-2021

I am so glad you are in my class this year--we are going to have a lot of fun!

Mission Statement: The mission of Physical Education is to empower all students to sustain regular, lifelong physical activity as a foundation for a healthy, productive and fulfilling life.

Course requirements: Students have the opportunity to earn daily points for units & fitness activities which must be entered in a weekly log. Along with that, points will be given for weekly Google Meets which you must attend to receive full credit. Wednesdays will be our run day and must be included in your weekly log.

P.E. Activities: Students will typically participate 2 days each week in a Synchronous Fitness Activity (Trunk Lift, Curl-ups, Push-ups, and/or activities that promote physical fitness levels) and 3 days each week in an asynchronous activity including a running component on Wednesdays.

Here are some terms you should be familiar with for Distance Learning:

Weekly Playlists - agendas, videos, assignments, and weekly physical Education logs for each week

Google Classroom - where you complete and submit your work; this page shows you how to log in

Synchronous Classwork - work you do during our scheduled time together in Google Meets

Asynchronous Homework - work you do independently during times when our class isn't meeting
