With our current school schedule, student do not have adequate time to exercise and practice healthy living in the school day. P.E. basics, such as cones, hula hoops, step benches, will be used as tools to guide and serve as items to use during our P.E. class. Healthy living must be seen as a higher priority item in our community, and we hope this is the first step. P.E. is more than just fun and games. It is an opportunity to practice good sportsmanship and cooperation, while having fun and exercising. For many of my students, not playing outside isn't a matter of laziness or lack of access, but of safety. It is SAFER for them to play video games indoors, then to play on their streets or at the park. Our hope is to provide our students with access to outdoor activities in a safe and encouraging environment.
