Learning Format

4th Grade Fitness and Health students participate in physical activity and acquire health information and skills as they explore what it means to live a healthy life.

Students learn about the benefits of regular physical activity and the importance of physical fitness. Each day, students participate in 30 minutes of physical activity. They learn and practice new fitness skills weekly to help improve flexibility, coordination, strength, and aerobic activity.

Students apply fitness skills as they explore various games and specific sports, such as basketball, dance, soccer, and volleyball. In the area of health, students learn about physical, mental, and social health.

They learn about wellness, safety, nutrition, disease and its prevention, emergency response, and the dangers of drug, tobacco, and alcohol use, including skills in refusing harmful substances.

They learn about the importance of relationships and communication. Students also learn about dealing with grief, avoiding gangs, addressing bullying, and outdoor and online safety.

Students practice for and take a fitness test that includes sit and reach, push up, sit up, and a mile run. Students use a Fitness and Health Notebook to reflect on what they have learned and apply information and skills.

Our customized learning approach crafts a strong foundation of essential skills for elementary school students in grades K–5, nurturing a love of learning and confidence in their capabilities.
