The Benefits of Our Physical Education Program
At Gulf Stream School, our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten Physical Education programs utilize movement to foster early social development and collaboration.
The Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten Physical Education program provides a developmentally appropriate environment where students learn fundamental movement skills, coordination, balance, pathways, and spatial awareness. Through movement activities and low-organized games, children learn to follow directions, work cooperatively, practice good sportsmanship, manipulate equipment and build confidence.
