Archery Club 02/16/11

Feb. 16th  was the last Archery Club meeting of the year and it was a blast. The students started the day by taking a post-test. The post-test consist of labeling the parts of the bow. After the test we began warming up by shooting at 5 yards. Once each student shot a couple of times the competitions began. The students participated in 3 shooting competitions. During the first 2 competitions students shot from 5 yds. The objective of the competitions was to shoot the most arrows in zone 9 and 10 of the target. The final competition of the day was a girls vs. boys competition. During this competition the objective was to pop the most balloons. The ballons were placed on a target 10 yds. away. This time the girls got the best of the boys, because they were victorious. Also, students that had perfect attendence in Archery Club received an archery pen at the end of class.

Healthy Food Healthy Balance: Nutrition Unit

Food Group Pyramid Game
There are 5 food groups and the oils,fats,and sweets group in the food pyramid. Each group has arecommended amount that should be eaten daily.

-Oils: 3-5 tsps.

-Milk: 2-3 cups

-Meat& Beans: 4-6 ounces

-Vegetables: 1.5-3 cups

-Fruits: 1.5-2 cups

-Grains: 5-7 ounces

How to play:
Divide the class into equal teams depending on the size of the class. Each team has a hula hoop at the other end of the gym. Food cards are located in the hula hoop. Also, each team has a food pyramid guide placed on the floor beside them. The guide is used to determine the recommended daily servings from each group. On the teacher's signal "GO" a person from each group runs to get a food card from their hula hoop. Once they return to the group, the card is placed in the appropriate food group. Students take turns running to get food cards and placing them in the correct food group. When all of the food groups have the daily recommended amount of food, the team sits down. This activity should last 5-7 minutes.

Food For Energy & Food: Nutrition Unit

Energy Cube Warm-Up teaches students the body receives energy from the foods a person eats daily. Energy in food is measured by the number of calories it contains. The energy in food is found from the following nutrients: carbohydrates, fat, and protein. Carbohydrates provide 4 calories in each gram. Carbohydrates are sugars that can be quickly broken down by the body and used for energy. Carbohydrates are stored in relatively small quantities within the muscles and liver. Fat provides 9 calories in each gram. Fat is a great source of energy and can be stored in large quantities by the body. Protein provides 4 calories in each gram and is used primarily to build and repair body tissue. Protein is used as an energy source when carbohydrate stores are low. When a person becomes more fit their muscles will become better at using fat for energy. This saves carbohydrate energy that is stored in muscles.

How to Play:
Students begin jogging around the cones when the music starts. When the music stops the students stop. The teacher will throw the Energy Cube in the air, the students will perform specified exercises according to whatever side of the cube is facing up. If the cube lands on Protien the students perform 4 push-ups. This demonstrates that there are 4 calories in each gram of Protien. If the cube lands on Carbohydrate the students perform 4 rocket blasts. This demonstrates that there are 4 calories in each gram of carbohydrates. If the cube lands on Fat the students pretend they are playing video games, playing on the computer, or watching TV for 9 seconds. This demonstrates that there are 9 calories in each gram of fat. This activity should last 3-5 minutes.
