Why should we walk? Why should we have our students learn about the benefits of walking?
Well, these answers and many more reasons are explained in the documentary below the 20 Benefits of Walking image.
What Walking Means for Physical Education Class:
Maple P.E. Students are not just talking the talk; they are literally walking the walk when it comes to learning about the many benefits that come from walking.
Throughout the school year students at Maple will be participating in full class walks both indoors and outdoors to help students learn firsthand how walking can be a positive form of exercise in their daily lives. Maple P.E. students have already been learning about the many reasons why walking is beneficial in class and will continue to learn throughout the school year through various walking-based activities.
The Physical Education Department wants to positively challenge all Maple Families to check out the documentary below and discuss ways that their family can infuse the many benefits of walking together at home and around their community. Feel free to share your ideas with your student's P.E. Teacher; we would love to hear from you!
