Parent Bi-Monthly Bulletin (February-Issue #2)
Welcome to GAVS Personal Fitness
General Information
Off to a good start!!!
Pacing guides for each of these start dates are on the class homepage. Your child is strongly encouraged to print this document out and save for their reference so they can complete assignments correctly and on time. If you would like a copy of this pacing guide, please email me and I can email you a copy that corresponds to your child's schedule. The class policies can be found in the class syllabus which is also available for download on the class website. Late policies will be enforced on all assignments.
Reminder of Important Information
- Students need to log into GAVS and visit my class homepage DAILY. Failure to do so can adversely affect their grade as they will not stay on track with current information or assignments.
- Students will have workouts to complete WEEKLY. The type of workout is completely up to the student. The amount of time and intensity is predetermined and spelled out in the class pacing guide. Workouts must be submitted to the dropbox every Sunday by midnight.
- Adobe Connect Sessions which are live chats which allow interaction between teacher and students weekly. Sessions for this class are every Wednesday at 9PM. Links to access the chat can be found on the class homepage. These sessions cover content for the class as well as allow students to ask questions to improve their success in the class. Sessions are recorded and students can access them at anytime from the class homepage.
- Schoolcast will call every Wednesday to give you an update on your child's grade in the class. Per GAVS policy I cannot email you information about your child's grade, but can converse with you via phone only.
- If your child is having issues with their HRM, please contact Polar directly as I am not equipped to handle those issues. Polar Technical Support is open Monday-Friday 8-5pm only and can be reached at 800-227-1314 ext 4013
