Welcome to Coach's P.E. & SEL Class

CLASS OVERVIEW

Students of all grade and skill levels participate in physical activity in courses that develop team and individual skills, with emphasis on habitual health and wellness as a lifelong goal. Students at Manzanita maintain physical activity journals and are expected to commit 400 hundred minutes per weekend engaging in health and physical fitness, documenting completed activities in their journals.

SEL is also an integral component of Manzanita’s physical education program. Examples of activities that foster social and emotional growth are: Circle Time; Community Walks; student facilitators for warm-up and strength-building activities; and self-awareness and self-regulation while participating in rigorous team activities.

Each year, all of Manzanita students learn CPR and memorize all of their bones and muscle names. In addition, students participate in nutrition education, as well as health and disease information.
