| Teaching personal fitness effectively in middle school versus high school requires different approaches and content, but the coursework must be complementary. Learn how the popular high school personal fitness text, Fitness for Life, articulates with its new middle school level counterpart. The two provide a seamless progression that helps younger students develop a love of physical activity, prepares them for high school level fitness education, and ultimately provides high schoolers the means to take charge of their own lives so they can adopt habits that lead to lifelong physical fitness and health. Audience: district and middle/high school physical educators. |
