Physical Education-

Knowledge, Skills, Attitudes

Physical Education-

Mind, Body, Spirit

Daily quality Physical Education-

No child left ON their behind!

Exercise grows brain cells! (Jean Blaydes, research report from the Sauk Institute, 2003)

Fitness is for Every Body!

We don't stop playing because we

grow old, we grow old because we

stop playing!

If you don't take care of your body,

where will you live?

Gym is a place, Physical Education

is a class.

Physical education- we either pay for it now, or our children will pay for it later.

Physical Education:

Building competence and confidenceTeaching lifetime fitness skillsFostering cooperation, sportsmanship, and self-disciplineTeaching fitness and movement concepts
