April Skills

For the month of April, children are learning the following skills in our quality physical education program:

Wellness Concepts in elementary physical education center around children’s understanding of the concepts and their awareness of the linkage of the concepts to good health.

Aerobic Capacity is the maximum capacity of an individual’s body to transport and use oxygen during incremental exercise. It’s any kind of movement that makes muscles use oxygen by getting the heart pumping faster.

Rhythmic Experiences is a classification of Dance Experiences. In this, children learn about different rhythms; they develop an awareness of rhythm and the ability to move in relation to various beats.

Group Dynamic is a method of interaction. In the Physical Education realm, Group Dynamics is considered when a child experiences both being a leader and a follower in the same activity.
