Observing PE classes

Physical activity has many benefits for children in developing physical and mental health, but recent studies say that it even helps your child learn better in school. Mr. Libarulo, an elementary physical education teacher at Center Avenue stressed the importance of being active to his class. Therefore, he made sure that his students were active for most of the period. He allotted 58% of his classroom time to for the students to practice certain skills. The teaher had all the equipment set up before hand so that allowed for more time to be active.
