Physical Education: Good Morning, Falcon Parents...

 
Conferences are today.  If I am unavailable to meet with you when you come for conferences today please let me know so that I can correspond with you via email, or contact you by phone, whichever you prefer.
Puppies and Poses extra credit points will be entered tomorrow, along with the reflection and quiz scores from 2/9.
I would like to offer an additional extra credit opportunity this quarter.  To participate, students need access to a smart phone.  Students will download the app "Charity Miles" and then run, walk or bike while using the app.  The app is free to download and to use (aside from data usage).  Students select a charity that they want funds donated to on their behalf and a corporate sponsor will then donate 10 cents per mile biked and 25 cents per mile run or walked.  Students can earn up to 50 points for participating in this activity.  To earn the maximum, students should run or walk 10 miles OR bike 25 miles OR a combination of the two so that the total donated on their behalf equals at least $2.50.  Mileage can be broken up into any number of sessions.  Students should take a screen shot after each completed session and then bring those in to show me when they have finished.  Students have until March 12th to participate in this activity if they would like to earn extra credit for it.  We will describe this option to students during class next week and I will be happy to assist anyone with the app if needed.  Let me know if you have any questions regarding this opportunity.
Hope you have nice day!
