“Wait a minute. What’s this? It looks like the Tech Team is calling in the rookie from the gym to post her first weblog. The results could be disastrous!”
It is time to push the mute button on that sports commentator in my head. He is the well dressed gentleman with a British accent that convinces you into hitting your driver off the 1st tee.
“Fore! Heads up on the right side this one is coming at you!”
He’s also the former All-Star who can make you think twice before swinging at the pitch.
“Strike three! You’re out!”
Perhaps that is a stretch of the imagination. There will be no high paid sports analyst reading my blog, will there? Yikes…it is even worse than I expected! Mrs. Davis, Mrs. Meeler, the Blooming Bloggers, students and teachers of House, and that is just the tip of the iceberg.
I am embarking on this cyberspace adventure because to the JHH Blooming Bloggers. This group of remarkable students let me have a sneak peek at blogs detailing their favorite sports. My love of sports and their fascinating blogs were a perfect match. Making comments on their posts resulted in the most exciting part of my blogging experience ~ the students responding to my comments. Now I am hooked!
My goal is to get this blog in shape. Along the way I will address issues concerning health, fitness and P.E. happenings. Let's dive in …
You go girl! Even though there are a lot of people who do not incorporate sports into their lives, any kind of exercise is always good for your health. I do however love to watch baseball (especially the Braves). So I was impressed with the picture on your Blog site. Looks like a close call!!!I am looking forward to more Blogs...........

Wow, Ms. Roper! Looks like you hit a homerun with your new weblog! Do you think any teachers at JHH have ever played any kinds of sports? I think it would be fun for the students to know another side of their teachers...the sports side! Thanks for creating this blog. Let's get it in shape!

I think we should go outside more in our class we've been outside 3 times in the whole year. I know teacher's schdules are tight but couldn't they take out 10 or 15 minutes a week to go outside and play.
