Answer 1

ANSWER:

The strategies do not include physical activity providing opportunities for competition in sport.

Option: (D)

EXPLANATION:

• Physical education is an important component of total education of the child and it has been mandated that every state, district, and school in the United States requires physical education for its students.

• The physical education programmes have to be improvised to good quality ones.

• Knowing that 'physical activity promotes health' is not enough. NAPE has set five standards to inculcate fitness among  children.

• Those standards do not include the clause saying physical activity.
