A Skill a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

One of your goals with this dimension of movement is to learn to adapt your physical skills to a variety of environments. You'll be learning:
  • basic physical skills,
  • how to apply these skills.

These skills will add up to you performing better, having more fun, and being less likely to get injured - something your parents will be especially glad to hear!

A Wide, Wild World of Activities

There's a wild world of activities to choose from under the heading of alternative environments because you're using the outdoors as your playing field. You can embark on an outbound journey or simply head out your own back door as you participate in activities like walking, camping, cycling, wall climbing, in-line skating or snowboarding, just to name a few. Just remember that you'll need to choose a variety of activities to complete the course.

Also, if you're involved in community programs that include activities from within this dimension, remember that no more than 40 hours can be credited to your work in the dimension. You're aiming for a variety of experiences in physical education. You need to complete at least seven hours of activity in this dimension.
