Picking PE



Should schools let you pick what unit you have for P.E? The answer, yes they school should let you to be able to choose what units we have for P.E. Why?

It will make P.E more enjoyable to everyone. this will mean children will be more engaged in the unit. This is an advantage because it will make us happier “Research suggests that both playing and watching sports ultimately really do make us happier.” (The Huffington Post, 2014)

This also means that playing sports will be more fun for everyone. Even for the kids who don’t like P.E. It will open them up to new sports and lead them to try new things. Also it can help everyone cope with stress. “Their research shows that middle-school teenagers who are physically active and play on sports teams are more satisfied with their life and feel healthier.” (Science Daily, 2010)


However this should only be for middle school and up. As well as having set sports you can choose from and having the whole class vote on what the curriculum will be for that year. This will ensure that everyone will have an enjoyable P.E experience through out the years.


I understand that some kids don’t like sport but like I stated before it will open kids up to new things and make them happier. Also help them with stress. It will help people enjoy sports more and apply their learning outside of school.



This poll shows that kids want to choose with certain restrictions. So relating with my previous example kids want to pick.
