Gym Day!

Good Morning!! Today is Thursday, the day we are going to the YMCA. We will be going every Thursday but we will rotate what events we are doing. Today, we will be swimming so next Thursday we will be going to the gym. Are you excited?!

Yesterday you guys posted some behavioral expectations for the van ride and the YMCA. Here are my expectations:

1. Follow all directions the first time given.

2. Be respectful of yourself, others, and the building/van. 

3. Be prepared. If you don't bring a real bathing suit AND towel, you are not swimming.

4. Keep your hands/feet to yourself in the van and at the YMCA.

5. Appropriate/encouraging language only.

You can put your bathing suit on at school but remember to take ALL of your clothes with you to change into after swimming. We will be leaving school at 9:45 to be at the gym at 10 o'clock. You will walk into the locker room and put your personal items in a locker. You will not touch anyone else's personal items. I will be waiting on the other side of  the locker room for you. You will not be in the locker room for any more than 2 minutes before I send a male staff member in to get you. You will swim for half an hour before I start calling people to get out of the pool. Once your name is called you will get out of the pool without arguing or complaining, go to the locker room, shower, put on your dry clothes, and put your wet clothes in your bag. This should take approximately 10 minutes per student. If you are in the locker room too long, I will send a male staff member in to get you. Then you will return to the pool to sit and wait with me. Once everyone has completed this process, we will walk out to the van and return to school. We should be back around 11:20 which we will then proceed with our typical daily schedule. 

Please comment below stating you have read the expectations and procedures and understand them. If you have a question, come see me, and we will discuss it.
