Description/Notes
When educator Cathie Summerford started teaching sixth-graders in 1993, she wanted to create an interdisciplinary physical education program-one that builds healthy minds as well as bodies and prepares children for a lifetime of wellness and fitness. She broke new ground with a theme-based approach to physical education that children and teachers love.In PE-4-ME: Teaching Lifelong Health and Fitness, you'll find Cathie's blueprint for a unique K-12 program that integrates physical activity with movement concepts, social skills, stress reduction, nutrition, school safety, and drug resistance education. Cathie stresses brain-compatible learning - the ability of physical activity to enhance cognitive function - in all of her lessons to maximize the benefits of her integrated approach.This valuable resource spells out a yearlong plan that is fun-filled, action-packed, and easy to implement.
