This week in pe we have been
increasing the distance we run. Monday, Wednesday and Fridays we are running
laps and doing our strengthening exercises such as pushups, situps, burpees. On
Tuesday and Thursday we are running 60 foot sprints.
We take a small group and let them
measure the distance using either a measuring wheel or a tape measure. They
place a sign on each cone showing the distance.
We review how many laps and how far
that lap is. This is the students’ homework question that is also their ticket
to play the next day. An example of a daily question is, "We ran 5 laps. Each lap
was 560 feet. How far did we run?" or “We
ran 28 sprints. Each lap is 60 feet. How far did we run today? We also asked them, “How far did you run for the week?”
