My Students

My Project
Of the many subjects children study in school, there are few more important than physical education. A high quality curriculum aligned with state/national standards and guidelines, along with hgh quality physical education program offers children opportunities to develop the skills, concepts, and dispositions needed to be physically active for life. Students who participate in regular physical activity will benefit from better learning; reduces stress, anxiety, and depression; and improves overall student wellness. It doesn’t matter if the child excels in every other subject in school and becomes a successful member of society it they suffer with poor health. All people need physical education fo live a healthy life. Colorful and attractive materials will help with engaging young students.
