Exercise Record Keeping Sheet
Submitted by admin on Fri, 05/14/2010 - 06:11Here's an exercise record sheet that you can use to keep track of your weekly exercise. Click on the link to open the spreadsheet.
Please save it as "your name_exercise" and save it in the folder marked "Exercise Record" inside of your class' folder. For example, I would save it as:

DON'T FORGET TO PUT YOUR NAME ON IT!!! WE DON'T WANT 50 RECORDS NAMED "EXERCISE RECORD.XLS". THAT WON'T HELP ANYONE!
