Developing Physical capacities

Because we sit down for long hours at school and at home, we very often do not get enough exercise and this is not beneficial to our development. For this reason, it is important to exercise daily and improve our physical capacities.

1) To keep our body flexible we have to:

- Exercise our joints softly

- Practise active exercises to improve our flexibility

- Practise different passive exercises with our classmates to improve our flexibility

2) To develop our strength we have to:

- Practise pulling and pushing activities

- Practise pushups and stretcching

- Practise throwing objects

3) We can improve our speed by doing our exercise a little faster each day

4) We can build up our stamina by running short races making them longer in time and distance each day
