Taking a Holistic Approach to Physical Education
As more teachers shift from traditional fitness assessments to student well-being, it is essential to ensure lessons reflect real-life needs. By adopting a holistic approach—considering physical, social, emotional, and mental aspects—teachers can address students’ unique challenges. In turn, this positively impacts their well-being inside and outside the classroom. Learn more about physical activity guidelines from the CDC.
