BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE

I must stress the importance of physical activity in the daily lives of all children. I could make this really scientific but I am going to keep it as student friendly as possible. When students receive just 20 minutes of exercise, their overall brain function improves. That means you can focus better in class which can lead to better grades.

SO AN ACTIVE BRAIN= BETTER ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE

WOW, I knew I would have an immediate and lasting impact on you!

RESEARCH

Look at how much more active the brain is after just 20 minutes of walking - http://www.playworks.org/blog/exercise-medicine-brain-especially-adhd

A LITTE BIT ABOUT MYSELF

Hi my name is Mr. Slyk. I have been involved in sports from the age of 4. In my spare time I enjoy playing a variety of sports including, hockey, soccer, volleyball, ping pong, snowboarding and mountain biking. When I am not teaching in the classroom I am teaching on the ice. I have been a hockey instructor for 6 years now and am eager to share my passion for sports and education with all students at SJA.
