In September, and periodically through out the school year I review with all the students how they can earn a small prize and a “Fitness” certificate every month, and also how they can earn a Fitness Medal at the end of the school year. However, especially with younger students, parents need to re-explain at home and/or support their child’s efforts if you and/or your child desires to complete “optional” PE fitness homework.
Fitness Medals
If a child completes 8 or more optional PE assignments (one per month) for 8 or more months for the 10 months we are in school, they will receive a fitness medal at the end of the year assembly in June or in the fall if school's are still closed.
All assignments are NOT new learning an are:
•Optional
•Non-Graded
•Gets your child's name published in the monthly fitness champs flyer (posted on the Power School Website Only & Hanging on my PE Bulletin Board outside the office at Juanita Elementary)
•Earns your child a certificate and a small prize (one prize a month)
•Earns your child a fitness medal at the end of the year if they do one assignment on time, every month for 8 out of the 10 months that your child is in school.
A child can choose to do a variety of assignments, or they can do the same assignment (for example, a fitness calendar) each month throughout the school year. Late Fitness Calendars will not be accepted. Fit Art & Fitness Is Fun Photos counts they month that I receive it. For example, if a child draws a picture in September but they do NOT give it to me until mid October, the Fit Art assignment is credited for October.
Sincerely,

ONLINE BIKE TEST (4th & 5th grade only)
This Test is found only on my PE PowerSchool Website. See bottom of the page on how to access this side
This is an online test testing the student's knowledge of bike safety. Student must pass the test by 80% or better. The student is only allowed to take this test one time a year for “credit” towards their fitness medal. Taking this test DOES count towards their fitness medal.
FITNESS POLLS & SURVEYS
There are 4 polls or surveys and can be found only on my PE PowerSchool Website. See bottom of the page on how to access this side
If you complete all four polls in one month, it counts as one of your monthly "fitness assignment"

Downloadable Fit Art and Other Optional PE Homework
There is no specific due date, but rather the child simply gets credit the month they email fit art in, & they can turn it in at any time. The fit art drawing must include the child doing an activity or sport that gives them exercise The drawing must have 5 colors or more, drawn on an 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper or larger, and have their name, their teacher's name & date written on the back. The student must also include a brief description of what they are doing and how it helps them keep fit. Younger students can "dictate" the sentence to their parents who then can write it for them.

Other Ways Your Child Can Earn Prizes
I can tie my shoe (Kindergarten-2nd grade Students Only)
Your child will get the opportunity to show me they can tie their shoe, unassisted 4 times a year but only can “earn” credit once. In other words, if they can show me they can tie their shoe in October, they do NOT need to show me in the other 3 testing months. Please send me a very short video (or a snapshot) of your child tying their shoe on your cell phone and email it to me as an attachment at lkohlwes@lwsd.org
Learning to tie your shoe does NOT count as fitness so it does NOT count as an “assignment” for the month towards earning their fitness medal.
