Fitness Log three will be due on Tuesday September 7th. Tuesday will also begin the start of our dance unit in which the students will be learning the Thriller dance!

Reminder fitness log number two is due on monday. I decided not to take points off of fitness logs because it was the first couple weeks of school and students are still getting back into the swing of things, but any fitness logs that are late starting next week with be docked 10 points per day that it is late.

This week the 8th grade will be starting their badminton unit. There will be a test at the end of the unit on the skills that they have learned. A reminder that Fitness Logs are due, signed and filled out, on Monday August 23, 2010.

As we are wrapping up our first week of school students have been working this week on fitness. Every week the students have homework and that is to be active in an activity AT LEAST three times a week for at least 30 minutes a day. This 30 minutes and be a combination of things or just one thing. Parents must sign the fitness log and students will bring it to class at the start of the next week, so every Monday students will have a fitness log due.

I would like to first of all welcome back all students to Fulmer Middle School as well as welcome our new students. I hope this year will be a fun one for all of us. The first thing that sutdents need to make sure they take care of is to have their health statements and point system sheets filled out and signed by both the student and the parents. These papers are due on 8-18-10, all papers turned in late will result in a lunch detention until the papers are turned in. Monday will be the first day that fitness logs will be do, these will be filled out by the student and signed for confirmation by parents. If there are any questions feel free to e-mail me.

Any missing tasks by any student will be due to me by Monday March 22. If students have missing fitness logs they may print one off of the website or write it on a sheet of notebook paper making sure to label the week, have notes and logs filled out, and making sure that their name is at the top of the paper. It is the students responsibility to come ask for any other missing papers that they may need.

 There will be a notebook check on friday. Students should have all of their calenders, fitness logs (filled out and signed even if their is a grade), and tests/quizzes. They should also have their syllabus and fitness log. Students will be given back their rough drafts for their writing assignments if they had one (does not apply to 6th grade) and should have that in their notebooks.

Progress Reports will be sent out today. Students should have their missing tasks turned by the end of next week. All students missing test will be given study guides and given a make up test the week of October 20th in the Lunch Learning Center.

Due to e-mail problems, progress reports will be e-mailed to parents on Monday September 8th instead of Friday September 5th. I am sorry for the inconvenience

Progress Reports will be sent home with students who I do not have parent e-mails from. If the student has a parent e-mail in their file, an e-mail will be sent to the parents reguarding their child's progress in the class.

Students had a pop quiz today instead of going outside for activity due to picture day. Before the quiz we reviewed every answer and immediately took the quiz. Grades should be sent out to parents tomorrow, Friday September 5th. If the parent does not have an e-mail on file with the school then progress reports will be sent home with students.

The 8th grade will be moving into team games of flag football the week of September 2-5, that following week (September 8-12) we will be having a quiz/test on flag football. Student should be prepared to have the exam on either Tues. or Wed.
