HEATHER, athlete and personal trainer: Gym class, also known as physical education, is one of the most important aspects of a child’s curriculum, and yet we are continually de-emphasizing it in classrooms across the country. In many cases, we have eliminated it entirely and in others, we allow kids to move for 45 minutes to one hour per week. Yes, you read correctly. We encourage and even mandate within a curriculum that a child be active for that short of a time. And we mistakenly think that the child will reap some grandiose benefit from this limited activity. What if we had a child participate in a physics or geometry class for less than an hour per week and expected him or her to be a master of the subject? Obviously 99% of those who participated would be far less than an expert in their field. So then, how can we expect our youth to receive any tangible benefits from a physical education class, let alone yield any lifetime health behavior changes?
Children of all ages need to move and be active both in school and at home. Kids are born to talk, move, jump, run and hop. Physical education is not about learning a sport, it is about teaching children movement and activities that they can use throughout their lives.
I am not going to bore you with the health facts that we are inundated with on a daily basis. You know we are one of the fattest nations in the world. We know that Type 2 diabetes has risen significantly in our children. We know the physical and mental health benefits of exercise. If the schools can’t or won’t provide the environment, get involved with your children and get them moving.
Get off the instant messenger on your computer, step away from the television set and go out and do something physical with your kids. You set the example. It is your responsibility to teach your children the active pursuit of health.
