At BA, Fitness with Focus Keeps Scholars Moving
Our P.E. teachers believe that physical education is bigger than just sports. They place teamwork, cooperative game playing, and working with others to accomplish a goal at the top of the skills list they want all BA scholars to learn.
Every grade level and class takes P.E. weekly, and fitness units vary throughout the year to meet state and national standards. Traditional sports and fundamentals comprise the most significant portion of the curriculum, although we carve out time for popular activities like jumping rope and dancing the Electric Slide.
In addition to manipulative skills, scholars develop muscular, cardio, and flexibility endurance through individual exercises and team sports exposure. From running and basketball to push-ups and kickball, we make exercise fun while stressing accountability, sportsmanship, and social skills.
Curriculum: Our PE and Health instructors use the Comprehensive Health and PE Curriculum by QuaverEd. The chosen curriculum sets itself apart with an innovative platform that unites Health and PE, providing 408 ready-to-go lessons for a full school year. Aligned with SHAPE America National Standards, our curriculum supports various teaching styles and makes learning seriously fun for scholars. Both Health and PE lesson plans include movement, interactive videos, games, assessments, and more.
