1
Q
What makes physical education (P.E.) crucial for children’s development?
A

A
- Incorporate movement into lessons: e.g. walking while identifying verbs.
- Movement breaks: Short physical activities like jumping jacks.
- Fitness drills: School-wide exercises like push-ups or crunches.
5
Q
What strategies can secondary teachers use to integrate P.E. into lessons?
A
