Grade 2 Physical Education & Health
A quarter of true stories, from James Naismith’s peach baskets and Daniel’s ten-day test to an astronaut’s first space snack and a doctor’s paper tube, each one followed by a real game, a water log, a snack to make, a strength or balance challenge, or a jump-rope count, done again the next time to get a little better.
