PAF 30 September 30 - Oct 4

I hope you took advantage of this gorgeous weekend and were outside and active!  If I remember correctly this coming Sunday October 6 is the annual Bannockburn fall hike here is a link to a fabulous outdoor physical activity:  http://www.abca.on.ca/page.php?page=bannockburn-fall-hike

As always our weekly plan is tentative and flexible - remember we are in a week A so we will be heading to the YMCA Friday afternoon.  If you have not paid me your $20 could you please do that right away.

This week most days will see us with a group warm-up and workout and then you will have 40 - 45 minutes to work on your own fitness plan.  We will come back together at the end of the class for a cool down together.

Sometimes our group activity will be at the beginning of the class and sometimes it will be towards the end.  We will be having our literacy activity on THursday as we are off to the Y on Friday.

Please always remember you proper gym clothes, coming prepared and participating fully is part of your mark

Welcome Back for a New School Year!

Welcome back everyone.  I hope you had a fabulous summer and you are energized and ready to go.  This is the spot where you will find information relating to my classes...PAF 30 (Personal fitness) and HPC 30 (Raising Healthy Children).  In Social Science/Family Studies we are implementing new curriculum this fall so you will notice that HPC has a new name...the former parenting Course is now called raising healthy children.  Much of the content is the same and the focus is still preparation for parenting, conception and prenatal development and birth to age six.

Remember that I am a part0time teacher and I will be teaching two classes and at CHSS  1/2 days. In week A I am here in the afternoon and then in week B I am at CHSS in the morning.  I also coach the cross country team with Miss Carter and would love to have you come out to practices and join the team.
