Rules

Demonstrations are a great way to help students learn and understand the activity about to be done. Sometimes teachers should pair students together for assistance. Time limits should be disregarded. And strike-outs should be eliminated. These are all strategies that will help children succeed in physical activities.

Physical education is indeed important for all children. We have become a nation which excuses people from physical education for a wide variety of reasons.
I agree that modeling is the most successful way to teach children any concept, especially physical movements.

I agree. I think it would increase students self confidence if we disregarded some of that stuff.
