Welcome to the 6th Grade Health & Fitness website.  Your teachers, Karen Garnett and Patty Manning, have created this website to provide you with information that will help you to be successful in our class.

This will be our third year of team-teaching Health & Fitness.  This class was created to provide 6th graders with their own, separate, year-long PE class.  We are excited to be able to provide them with a year-long, single grade level class that combines both subjects.  

Since we team teach this class, students see both of us for about 40 minutes each day they attend Health & Fitness.  If your schedule reads Health & Fitness 1st Period, with Ms. Manning, the student starts out in the gym for the activity portion of the class with Ms. Manning.  About halfway through the 80 minute period, the class goes to Room 401 for the Health portion of the class with Ms. Garnett.  We also share a gradebook, so students receive only one grade for the class.  

If a student has Health & Fitness 2nd period this year, Ms. Manning teaches both the fitness and the health portions of the class.  Any questions regarding 2nd Period Health & Fitness should be addressed to Ms. Manning.   


During other periods, regardless of which teacher a student is assigned to, if you have questions about the health classroom portion of the class please contact Ms. Garnett.  If you have questions about the gym activity portion of the class, please contact Ms. Manning.
