Whether the class produces positive
effects on students' health, behavior, and
academic performance depends upon
the kind of program that is taught.[3]
Physical Education programs vary all
over the world. However, there are
worldwide organizations that allow for a
better understanding on how much
exercise a child should be getting daily.
Popular games in PE include football,
netball, hockey, rounders, athletics and
cricket.
