In my opinion, Elementary Health and Physical Education is the most important among all the grades. At this age, there is the most learning curve for a child. My job is to teach not only the basic sports and activities such as soccer, basketball, volleyball, football, dance etc. but to fill my students with knowledge of their health, techniques, and sportsmanship. I want to impact my students’ lives not only in my gym class but also their outside life.
