Boys in fifth period physical education class play ball. Girls, too, learn many different games in physical education classes. Among those games learned are bad- minton, table tennis, and basketball. Health c 1 a s s e s are also irn- portant, for they produce a better understanding of first aid and body care. S t u d e nts in physical education classes learn not only the rules of a game and how to play it, but also good sportsmanship.
