Can You Run a Mile?
Fitnessgram
Fitnessgram is a fitness evaluation 3rd-6th graders do every spring. We just finished it before Spring Break. We have been running a mile since Christmas getting in shape and improving our times. At the beginning of the year they never believe they will be able to run a mile, but now they say it’s not so bad. We also do push-ups and crunches. Everyone has improved from last year’s test. We stress beating their own scores from the years before. I do not compare students with each other because every child is at a different fitness level. Ask your child what his/her time was and how many push-ups and crunches they did, it might surprise you. We are very proud of them all!!
