Fitness Testing

We have now moved on to fitness testing! I know, some of the students stress out about this, but I keep telling them- it's not about the numbers right now...it's about the effort. If someone wants to get better at any skill (being fit and healthy) they have to work hard at it!
According to the State of Georgia and Cobb County Schools we will be testing you child in the following fitness test:

For Grades 4 & 5:
Height
Weight
Push-ups
Curl-ups (sit-ups)
Sit and Reach (measures flexibility)
Pacer (measures cardiovascular endurance)

**These test are part of the Fitness Gram fitness test. You can look up more information at: http://www.fitnessgram.net/

For Grades K-3:
We will practice those tests, but will only record numbers for height and weight.

Thanks, and stay healthy!!
