Boys PE For the first twenty minutes of the class period students engage in vigorous physical activity, including cardiovascular, strength, flexibility, and endurance training. At the beginning and end of each quarter students test themselves in these areas to measure improvements. The second half of class is spent on sports and games. The goal of this component is to teach the students the skills that will be necessary to engage in physical activity for the rest of their lifetime.
