Welcome to Chango's Physical Education Program

Coach Dan Cafarelli

In Shenendehowa, the physical education program endeavors to guide students in positive directions, enabling them to develop competence and confidence in their physical abilities.  It is our belief that this competence and confidence will eventually culminate in a desire to participate regularly in physical activity and have it become an enjoyable part of their lives.

             Chango Elementary Physical Education includes instruction in the areas of fitness, development of movement and motor skills, coordination, cooperation, and health.  This program is designed to meet the needs of all children, with the main goal of helping them to reach their fullest potential and to feel good about themselves. 
With this in mind the following objectives are incorporated into the program:
1- To provide a fun, positive and safe atmosphere, whereby learning can become contagious!
2- To provide a program of instruction whereby knowledge of the body, development skills, and positive attitudes are reflected in participation of lifelong activities.
3- To provide a non-competitive philosophy, whereby everyone is a winner and cooperation is of high priority.
4- To provide problem-solving situations whereby students can become creative and learn to work together cooperatively.
