The P.E. program at DCS Montessori is that phase of the general educational program that contributes, primarily through movement experiences, to the total growth and development of each child. It is an instructional program that gives attention to all the various learning styles. We strive to teach children principles of human wellness.

The promotion of physical development and the achievement of personal fitness goals are stressed. We work on developing competency in a wide variety of physical skills, which allows students to function effectively in physical activities.

The development of a satisfactory self-image is strived for in Physical Education. Safety skills, cooperative and competitive attitudes are learned, also. Our classes offer an environment of effective social interaction, where children learn to understand the importance of participation, cooperation, and tolerance. Children experience interaction with other classmates and how the quality of their behavior influences others response to them. And yet, in accomplishing these greater goals, we also strive to have a lot of fun as well.
