<description><![CDATA[NefCanuck posted : See, my problem with P.E. is what a lot of people have pointed out:<br><br>"P.E. is <b>not</b> One Size Fits All"<br><br>As a mildly disabled person, I was not given any sort of accomidation in gym classes because either: <br><br>a) The instructor had no clue *how* to accomidate for my disability (Leaving me trying to climb that stupid rope with no way in hell that I could do it because it was physically impossible)<br><br>or<br><br>b) Didn't care and wasn't about to let someone "get away" with not doing all the activities that others were doing.  This led to one of my more traumatic memories of "Participaction" <br><br>Being forced into doing the 5K run and not being released from phys ed until I completed it, some 20 minutes later than the last able bodied student, meaning I showed up late for my next class covered in sweat, in my gym clothes.<br><br>I finally told my parents after <b>that</b> episode that either you get the staff to ease up, get me out of gym class or I'm not going back to school.<br><br>I had the note in my hand five minutes later.  Phys Ed. isn't supposed to be traumatic :mad:<br><br>I do exercise now as an adult, but <b>at my own pace</b> taking into account those exercises that I can't do and substituting others as I go.<br><br>NefCanuck]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Bob Anderson posted : Google for parallel bars skills and watch the videos.<br><br>The bars teach coordination between the limbs and your balance. You cannot get hurt and if you slip you only fall about six feet on to mats. A few hours practice for a few days will give you all the confidence you need to climb the rope. Remember, I said you cannot fall from the rope. You always have your hands and if necessary your feet gripping the rope. The only way you would ever let go of the rope would be if you had a heart attack. Other very good exercises are the wooden horse and overhead bars.<br><br>-Bob]]></description>

If you fall down, from that height, you will die. <br><br>Why did the school make grade 8 kids do something that might kill them?

<description><![CDATA[Bob Anderson posted : When I was 14 I could climb a 35 foot rope to the top with out using my feet. I would then loosen my grip on the rope and literally slide down the rope at the speed of gravity, then clamp the rope with my feet a couple feet above the floor and let go. I could climb a rope and descend to the floor faster than any other kid in the class. <br><br>There is no danger of falling. What you experienced is a fear of falling. You should explain this to the instructors and concentrate on other forms of exercise such as the parallel bars.<br><br>-Bob]]></description>

Murder-ball sounds like immediate grounds for teacher dismissal or student expulsion (under the Safe Schools Act). I got a concussion once from an overaggressive player and an extremely hard ball and pretty much refused to play it ever since.  <br><br>I think anyone who believes that you should let kids get injured in this way is a good way to make the obesity epidemic worse<br><br>as for the op "the rope" was meant to push a kid beyond his or her own comfort zone through academic discipline and peer pressure.  I don't remember anyone dying from it but broken bones and pretty serious fractures were pretty common.  <br><br>I think though the risks op talked about was the reason why they stopped doing it. (or at least improved safety standards with thicker mats and whatnot).  There were better and safer methods to teach the skills required and they began to recognize this as society became more safety aware. (possibly to a heavier extent but thats another argument)<br><br>Im thinking any teacher that pushes a child to the point of being degraded, bullied, insulted, or poorly marked if they don't perform high enough (scoring enough goals in floor hockey) though the whole "drill sergeant" mentality is giving them a disservice.  Any coach or instructor that forces a student to injury this way is probably abusive because thats not what the point of physical education is.  <br><br>A good instructor doesn't need to do this to achieve results.<br><br>My self well being terribly uncoordinated Phys ED even in the mid and late 90's was difficult to the point I dreaded it I pretty much nearly failed it every year because I didn't "perform to standard" and I was marked accordingly.  <br><br>Though this of course had nothing to do with "fitness" because my VO2 max was like 45 or 46 when I tested it in grade 12 and my fitness level currently (while not perfect) could be alot worse - especially with medication that effects things.  <br><br>I learned on my own that physical education is not about "scoring goals in floor hockey" thankfully but how to live an active and healthy life. Sadly most of my peers and students today don't because of the old attitudes and I think its why the fitness issue is there.<br><br>And why not cut a program thats viewed as a method of bullying, lowering academic performance, and injury risk.  Why waste the revenue on it.]]></description>
