Description: This course focuses on the student’s growth and development of skills needed for lifelong   fitness in a variety of activities in the classroom, fitness, health and outdoor recreational realm. This course will require students that are driven and willing to be open to alternative ways of discovering fitness goals. They will also learn information in preparation for outings.

Format: The class will be a combination of games, hands-on learning exercises, classroom   learning, teamwork activities and out-of school field trips. Students will be asked to arrive on time to both on classroom and out of classroom days. If you are required to change you will need to be on time and be prepared for each class situation. 

Course Objectives: To prepare students with a variety of skills and knowledge they may not learn in an ordinary Physical Education class. Students will also learn to manage time and handle issues related to weather or access to facilities. They will also gain knowledge of things to prepare them for fitness on the lifelong basis.
