Weekly Lesson Plans


To maximize the potential of this book and to develop a personalized physical education curriculum program for your child, you will need to read all the chapters of this book. If you do not want to take the time to read this book, however, do the activities listed below for each week. This short cut is intended to help you get started, and as you gain confidence, you can begin to customize the items in this book for your family setting. This is a suggested list of activities. A typical school year has 36 weeks of instruction and I have 40 weeks of instruction listed. If you need to skip a week, such as week 18 because you have no snow, you should still have more than enough activities to take you through the school year. I recommend you do physical education activities between three to five days per week.

Put a chalk mark on the road by the front wheel where you begin, drive your car around the block , stop when your odometer is at one mile and put a chalk mark by the front wheel.)
