February 7, 2018
The Lifetime Activities class is taught by Mrs. Olsen, a health and physical education teacher at the high school. The class offers many opportunities for activities, even on the weekends. The class has a variety of activities including everything from tennis and golf to fishing and skiing. The class teaches students activities and sports that they can do for the rest of their lives and with friends or family to stay active.
Mrs. Olson says that she describes Lifetime Activities as a “P.E. course that blends team and individual sports that individuals can do for the rest of their lives.”
One of the variety activities offered in the class is archery. As a motive for the students to hit the target, Mrs. Olson offers candy to the students for getting the highest score for their round. The class learned the whistle commands the first day and are now learning aiming.
