Required NH gym classes offer hidden advantages While doing push-ups, boys in gym class try to arch backs, flex elbows, and straighten knees. Even though gym classes are re- quired, they do offer hidden benefits. Go-getting young males build up muscles through strenuous exercises, while diet-conscious females work away extra pounds by burning calories in organized group games. In boys ' physical education, a nine- week gymnastics course involved tumbling, parallel bars, and stunts on the trampoline. They combined out- door weather with learning by play- ing flag football and Softball. Inteipretative dancing was added to the girls ' physical education cur- riculum to encourage individual co- ordination. Girls divided into groups and worked out dance routines to music. In the spring, both the girls and the boys classes tested their knowledge and physical ability by taking the President ' s Physical Fitness Test. Steve Holt and Jerry Furhman develop their leg muscles with crabwalking.
