I should preface that I’m a guy. Our district separated us by gender in to classes and rarely did things together.
Physical education - that’s what my district calls it, yet we called it gym because it was held in the gymnasium. The only time I remember a pencil being involved was when I forgot my gym shorts, was sent to detention and had to write a paper on why I wouldn’t forget them again. What’s worse is I was proud of the paper I wrote and the “coach” didn’t even read it.
We never studied anything. Every day we came in, told what we were doing and it basically was an exercise/workout class.
The class was loosely graded on your physical capabilities, such as how far you could stretch or how many laps you could run. I regularly walked and was probably slowest.
They essentially forced students to touch eachother, we did this weird stretch regularly in high school where you lay on your stomach and the person behind you lifted your thighs. No one ever did this alone except for when we had an odd number of people. It was uncomfortable.
We were even required to shower from time to time (it was a pass/fail grade sometimes), which everyone did naked. I was the kid who wore swimming trunks and was made fun of for it.
This was one of the most useless classes in my opinion. I think I did 5 years of this between middle school and high school. Gym was the “subject” I hated most.
It would have been nice to learn more about physical health and less forced to workout the entire class.
How is it today? What was your experience like?
