Welcome to Mr. Zigmand’s P.E and Health Page
Hi SAS Community!
My name is Karl Zigmand (Meet Mr. Z) and I teach P.E and health for grades 6-8 at SAS, Pudong. My blog will hopefully be a way for us to communicate and share ideas throughout the school year. We are off and running with a lot of exciting (November P.E Schedule for grades 6-8) activities already taking place. I also want this to be the place where you can come to see how our students learn and are assessed. For example check out this video on how we use heart rate monitors in P.E class. Student scores are recorded after each class. To understand the coorelation between heart rate monitor results and daily grades click here. For all other fitness testing standards click here. Much more to come so keep checking in with the P.E with Mr. Z blog!
Physical Education
Quarter 2 fitness testing is now completed for all students in grades 6-8. Students in P.E will begin a 2 week unit in table tennis. This will take us to winter break. January 6 we will begin a 3 week unit on basketball.
Health
Grade 6 have begun a unit on personal hygiene. Grade 7 students are concluding their unit on goal setting, and beginning a new unit on tobacco. Grade 8 students will be focusing on nutrition in quarter 2. For a more detailed look at each grade click on the links to the left of this page.
