Document Summary
Justify the place of hpe in primary schools. Health and pe teaches students how to enhance their own and others" health, safety, wellbeing, and physical activity participation in varied and changing contexts. Why teach health and pe? (summarised key aims: knowledge and understandings (game rules, attitudes and values (sportsmanship, skills for physical activity (catch and throw, fms, self-management skills (healthy choices for later life) Interpersonal skills (positive attitude to health and activity) Recent research suggests that even small amounts of exercise enable children to improve their focus and academic performance. Physical activity: helps to enlarge your brains basil ganglia to improve cognitive function, positively affects several vitally important areas of health (mental, physical, emotional, helps you sleep and improves your overall sleep quality (important for effective learning) Is a natural stress reliever: stimulates brain plasticity, reduces obesity, builds self confidence, skill development (gross/fine.
