But physical education is more than just fun; it is a time for learning. Perhaps you already know how to shoot baskets or dribble a soccer ball. But basketball and soccer will be even more fun as you improve your shooting and kicking ability. How about volleyball? or badminton? Can you do a backward roll or a hand stand? You can learn how to do things like these in PE. You will need a strong and healthy body to enjoy such strenuous activities as football, basketball, and tumbling. In PE you leam how to keep your body fit for work and play. Mr. Vlcek and Mrs. Ellery, the instructors, help the students learn how to move more freely and easily so that they will stand straighter, look better, and be able to work and play without unnecessary strain. How to play safely, to prevent injury to themselves and other, is also learned. PE develops sportsmanship and teamwork. This is a good class to learn more about others as well as yourself. 22
