Physical Activity Participation

All students at Bonham Elementary are required to participate in fitness training all year long. We had a student who participated but could not complete all of the sets and repetitions of our basic workout. BUT SHE KEPT TRYING! In May of that year (2018) she came to the Physical Education teachers after a workout and said "I FINALLY finished the workout. It took me all year but I never gave up. There was a joyful celebration that day and I have used that story to motivate other students to keep trying, set goals and never give up.

How did you accomplish your goals?

The student never gave up.

What challenges did you face and how did you overcome them?

The student had a low fitness level but kept trying.
