You'll need to justify your comment with how you and your class is meeting the PE standards......remember: 1) movement forms, 2) cognitive concepts, 3) active lifestyle, and 4) physical fitness. Good luck and have a wonderful intersession break. Remember that we're doing a mile and a half when we get back.
