To encourage students to participate in physical activities outside of the physical education class. Some days, the activities are predetermined by the teacher to work on certain aspect of fitness. Other days, students are given a list of activity choices to pick from. Credit is given to students who participate on sport teams. Students are also encouraged to try new activities.
Students record the activity number on their log when it is their choice day.
We complete two logs each marking period with each log lasting 4 weeks. Parents sign the log on a weekly basis. Logs are collected on the due date and assignments are counted as part of a homework grade for physical education. A sample log is sent home at the beginning of the year with an attached note explaining the assignments. New logs are distributed throughout the year.
