Happy Bodies, Healthy Minds: Physical Education For Children

Bys: Dibba, Dilipkumar and Dibba, Bhavani

Happy Bodies, Healthy Minds presents Physical Education as a central part of primary-school learning. Children need opportunities to move, play, explore, cooperate, solve problems, experience success and learn healthy habits. The purpose of this book is therefore broader than teaching sports techniques. It brings together movement education, physical fitness, health, social-emotional learning, inclusion, safety, assessment, technology and lifelong active living.The material is written for primary-school teachers, Physical Education teachers, teacher educators, students of Physical Education, and parents who want a practical understanding of children's movement and well-being. Each topic includes explanatory notes, classroom applications, teaching points and review prompts so that the material can function as both a textbook and a teacher's notebook.The central idea is simple: when children experience movement as enjoyable, safe, meaningful and inclusive, they are more likely to develop confidence and a positive relationship with physical activity.
