P.e.
Activity increases the oxygen flow to the brain, oxygen is an essential component to maximize the brain's functioning power. P.E. in elementary help to balance a child's day... hence the term... all work and no play... Children need P.E. to help build social skills, muscles, improve hand-eye co-ordination, develop confidence especially if they are not academically astute. P.E. serves as a foundation for Mind and Body development. Think about it... archery teaches hand-eye coordination, concentration, body mechanics.. balance; softball teaches team efforts, judgement, critical calculation skills, tennis teaches body mechanics, posture, decision making,etc.
