It seems there's a little confusion about the calendar that I sent home earlier this week. To be honest, I'm a little confused too :) I talked to some other teachers so here is a recap of the note that was sent home:
*We are trying to encourage our kids to live a healthy lifestyle so we are asking them to record the fruit they eat and the physical exercise they get daily. This calendar needs to be returned to school and will be picked up by the PE teachers on February 15.
*Fruit: please record the fruit they eat at home. You can also ask them if they ate the fruit from their school lunch.
*Exercise: PE at school can be counted. We have PE on Monday and Thursday for 30 minutes. You can record our noon recess on the calendar: 20 minutes. We have a 2:00 recess daily: 15 minutes. We have 10:00 recess on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday: 15 minutes that can also be counted on your child's calendar. Also record the physical exercise they get at home. Exercise with a video game cannot be counted.
I hope this helps. I'm sorry about the confusion!!! Our main goal is to encourage all children to be healthy and active!
