Health and Fitness Curriculum Grades K-6
Background Information
The recommendation of the Nutrition and Physical Activity Advisory Committee for teaching time of physical education in grades one through eight dealt with the requirement of the 100 required minutes of physical education and health instruction. Minimally, sixty of these minutes need to be taught by a certified physical education instructor. Committee members hoped that in the future, additional time would be by a certified physical education instructor.
At the elementary level, significant work has been done to identify grade level expectations and an aligned, coherent, and coordinated curriculum map for the physical education and fitness curriculum.
