Phys Ed

Physical Education classes are designed to help children at Manchester School improve their physical fitness, motor skill and personal and social interactions. Students set personal goals in the three areas and learn how to measure and document their progress toward these goals. The curriculum and assessments we use are aligned with Maine's Learning Results. Our most important goal is to motivate students toward a healthy and active lifestyle. We offer a wide variety of games, activities and opportunities to solve problems creatively and work independently and in groups to achieve the goals set. Every child should feel safe, successful and challenged to improve their personal level of performance. Favorite activities include Circus arts, personal fitness, cross country skiing, designing new games and sharing our work with others.
