From the supplier: Physical education provides a means by which teachers can help students develop responsible behavior. Cooperative activities and child-directed learning experiences can make children appreciate working with others and realize their role as decision makers. A problem-solving strategy enables children to handle challenges at their own pace and thus enhance their self confidence. Activities which allow children to explore their imagination can help increase their awareness of their suroundings. Teachers can play an influential role in their students' lives by being a role model of responsibility.
