8th Graders,
Two weeks until our holiday break. I can't believe how fast it is flying by.
WEEK AT A GLANCE
Monday- Lacrosse Drills
Tuesday- Pick Lacrosse Teams/Tourney Play
Wednesday- Run Day
Thursday- Tourney Play
Friday- Fitness Day
Check out your Google Calendar for more detail.
WHAT UNIT ARE WE IN?
We are in our second week of Lacrosse. Due to Scoliosis testing, we lost a day of Lacrosse last week, therefore, we are going to have one more day of skill drills on Monday. The plan is to spend about half the period on Tuesday picking teams and captains (much like for Flag Rugby) and then start with a scrimmage the rest of the period. For a full description of tournament rules, please go to this LINK.
WHAT IS OUR RUN THIS WEEK?
We will be running the Mile on Wednesday. Please review your mile run graph and rubric to come up with a challenging, yet realistic, goal.
WHAT FITNESS ACTIVITY ARE WE DOING THIS WEEK?
I am hoping to finally do the fitness activity that I have been planning for a while...exercise intensity comparing Heart Rate and RPE. You will be doing various fitness activities outside and then filling out a HR/RPE worksheet. Everything will be explained on Friday.
DID YOU FILL OUT YOUR E-LOGS?
e-Fitness Log: You DO NOT need to fill out a log for last week.
IS HOMEWORK ASSIGNED THIS WEEK?
Yes, HW #2, All You Need to Know About Muscles, was posted on your 8th Grade Homework Page. Assignment is due next Monday, 12/14.
ARE THERE ANY ASSIGNMENTS DUE THIS WEEK?
No, nothing is due.
There are several Extra Credit Assignments on my extra credit page, check it out.
Also, in dedication of Scoliosis testing this week, you can do a 5 point extra credit assignment by writing a half page paper on what Scoliosis is, how you can get it and ways to help prevent it. Make sure you name, period and roll call is included on the paper. It can be written or typed.
ANNOUNCEMENTS/REMINDERS
-Get your e-Run log done for the Pedometer Run.

SCOLIOSIS is your Word of the Week.
