Welcome to Mississippi Physical Education! This year, students in K-3 are learning basic skills that will be essential as they get older. Locomotor skills such as: running, skipping, galloping are developed. Students participate individually in lead-up activities that require spatial awareness and coordination.
Students in grades 4-6 participate in more advanced games/activities that involve "team-building". Students discover what it is like to work as a group and how to be successful. Fitness components such as muscular strength, muscular/cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility are introduced.
Reminder: Students should exercise at least 30 minutes a day!!
