Running records. Essentially a visual recording of the student’s reading word by word. It enables a teacher to identify the reading strategies the student may or may not be using and the types of errors the student makes while reading.

To administer a running record, the teacher provides the student with a book judged to be at his or her current reading level.

Running hasn’t been never easy for me espicially in P.E. class at Simpson middle school . even walking in “a single file” with class mates is like a line of marching ants moving accross the campus . I don’t see no point of walking in a single file. Aside from that is me playing basketball with my buddies. When I was in Simpson, I used to play basketball everyday with my friends in the morning and after lunch which we called a recess break. After short amount of time; running, bouncing an orange ball, and more running back and forth, I had hard time keeping up with teammates.What I’d usually do is, standing on the other side of the boundary line to slowly catch my breath once in a while.

First of all, I would like to say that I enjoyed choice reading very much. I am not an avid reading and don’t enjoy it that much. That's mostly because I don’t know what genre I like to read. I liked how you made it where we can go at our own pace. I feel that this trimester went very well. People really enjoyed it. We did have enough time to read. If we didn’t, most kids did read at home to get their number up. The most challenging book I read was the last one that read. It was called the Running Dream. It was only challenging because it was hard to follow because the chapters were very short and there were 3 parts to it. The main character had an injury but it didn’t really describe it in detail about what happening to her. The first page

In track and field, individuals compete in over twenty different events. Some people sprint; other people jump. Personally, I’m a thrower. But it seems like whenever I tell someone I’m a track and field athlete, I get the same response—“Oh,” they say, “I didn’t know you were a runner.”

www.mapmyrun.com I hate to be bound by roads or paths or mile makers, I like to make my own route, my own course.... which is great, except for the fact that I am than not really sure how far I have run. There are two main types of training, running for distance, and running for time. The best way to train is to use a combination, so weather you are running for distance or running for time it is often important to know how much ground you have covered. And even if you are a "time runner" like myself, it is good to do a distance run every once in a while to see where you stand and have an idea of how you will do in a race situation. While I do run for over-all enjoyment, and usually just pick an amount of time to run, it is nice to know the mileage I have covered, that is why I wanted to share this great resource with all of you. It is an online program called Map My Run (www.mapmyrun.com). You start by entering an address, once the map opens you picks points on your running route (using the symbol that looks like a dot), once you have picked all your points simply click the stop button (the button that looks like a stop sign) and it will tell you the distance at the lower right hand corner of the screen. This has been great resource for me, and allows me to easily make up 1 mile, 5 mile, 10 mile route, ect. You can also add aid stations that you know about, or bathrooms, or places to get water. That way you can print your map and have all the information you need on it

Running is my life….. I depend on it. It all started when I was little about the age when I could start walking/running. I am a very competitive person give me the opportunity to win or try to win against my brother I am in! So I would race against him all the time and I would win. My parents thought nothing about it until at a party. My cousins and I were running around and playing and one of my oldest cosines Darik. Darik was a cross country runner who normally got first place every time. But when he went to state his heart stopped in the middle of it. To this day he is on a heart monitor to keep in alive. But he told my parents that I was fast. They just talked to me about it. Then as I got older I did something about it.
