Fun with Fitness

Physical education can be a useful interdisciplinary tool because it can provide an important boost to academics.  Many of the skills students learn during physical education activities directly correlate with skills needed for success in the classroom.

Students learn to work together as they participate, develop a strong sense of team spirit, and strengthen their communication skills.  Students learn to lead, follow directions, and encourage one another.  Students will develop physical coordination, practice working in larger groups, meet challenges, and experience friendly competition.

Content will include:

  • Warm-up and stretching exercises

  • Team Games

  • Cooperative Games

  • Relays

  • Individual Fitness Activities

  • Playground Games

  • Parachute Activities

Class will take place outside as often as possible, or in the gym when activities or weather require it.  Students should dress appropriately for active play.

Fun with Fitness is a 30-week course that meets for 90 minutes each week. Come join us and improve your confidence and ability to have fun with fitness.
