Exercise and recreation
are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary, because
health is worth more than
learning."

| Comments:
While meeting the Pennsylvania State Standards, I want my students to
feel safe, physically and emotionally in Physical Education. In
many ways Physical Education is where emotional and physical
intelligence can be expanded and applied to today's as well as
tomorrow's challenges. Conditioning, sports, and rhythmic activities
promote health-related fitness, stress release, a sense of
accomplishment, increased self-esteem, cooperation with others,
increased mental alertness, and fun. |

Because your
well-being depends on it. You'll look and feel better, every day.
When you make staying active part of your daily life, you don't get tired
after taking a flight of stairs. You have more energy for weekend
get-togethers with family and friends. You're more alert. You do better at
school or at work. And you're more sure of yourself.
Fitness is about improving endurance, flexibility, and strength through
regular physical activity. That even includes things like walking the dog or
cleaning the garage.
Remember, it's never too late to get more active. Every little bit helps. It
doesn't have to be strenuous to be healthy, either. Just start slowly and
build gradually. The time to begin is right now. You'll start to notice the
difference right away - for both your body and your mind.
Heart health
Regular physical activity can lower your blood pressure and cholesterol
levels and can reduce the risk of illnesses such as Type II diabetes or heart
disease.
Bone support
Exercise is a good way to build strong, healthy bones and can help slow the
bone loss associated with getting older.
Sense of well-being
Being in good shape can give you more energy, reduce anxiety and depression,
improve self-esteem, and help you better manage stress.
Social life
Staying active can be a great way to have fun, make new friends, and spend
quality time with family.
Physical appearance
You look better when you're in shape. Staying active helps you tone muscles
and maintain a healthy weight - and can even improve your posture.
