RUNNING and HEALTH DAY
At Roth we have a running day program that the students participate in once a week. Part of the time is spent on a health lesson and the other part running. Each grade level has an annual running day goal. The goal is to complete 1 mile (8 laps ) around the track in a set time based on their grade. Improvement on the way to meeting the goal is celebrated. We do this day in order to encourage a healthy lifestyle, teach the importance of a healthy cardiovascular system, begin instilling healthy habits, and prepare students for the FitnessGram Test in the third, fourth and fifth grades.
Running/Health day will begin the first full week of school. We will remain inside for running if the HEAT INDEX is 100 or above and windchill is 40 or below. There will be time allowed at the conclusion of running for each student to go to the water fountain or drink from their own water bottles.
We encourage students to bring their own water bottles to P.E. with labeled name!!!!
