How Canadians exercise in class

Do you know about PE class in Canada?

It’s different from that in China.

I have my PE class every morning from

8:40 to 10 am. We all need to get changed and

run around the school to warm up. Then, the

teacher decides what to do for that day.

We can go to the weight room. There is a

lot of equipment (器材) for us to exercise our

muscle s (肌肉). We often spend about 30

minutes there. After that, we can go to the gym

and play ball games. Girls may do yoga or join

the boys to play soccer or American football. If

we don’t want to move, we can lie in the playgr ound and enjoy the sunshine.

If the teacher lets us stay in the gym, we practice different ball games. At the end of

each unit we have a written test about the rules of ball games. There are 20 “True or F questions. We also have skill (技巧) tests. It may be a ball competition or some movements.
