The New York State Physical Education Learning Standards
"The important connection between physical and mental health toward the overall wellness of a child was a critical consideration in this project. As a result, the New York State Physical Education Learning Standards reflect both the NYS Social Emotional Benchmarks and the NYS Mental Health Education initiative. This provides physical educators the opportunity to support school districts' efforts to contribute to the goal of overall wellness. The National Wellness Institute identifies the following six dimensions of wellness: emotional, spiritual, intellectual, social, physical, and occupational. These dimensions are revealed in the anchor standards and grade-level outcomes."
