The Evolution of a Wellness Program: A Team-Based Approach to Curricular Innovation
Belmont, Christopher
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v85 n3 p21-26 2014
The purpose of this article is to provide evidence of how an integrated high school health, physical education, and wellness program can be implemented. In addition to describing the process used to develop and maintain this wellness curriculum, the article describes the content of the curriculum and how the teachers were able to capture and hold the interest of students. The article also describes how the teachers overcame some of the challenges that all too often get in the way of schools offering quality programs, with a focus on those challenges that come from within the school's own department. It is hoped that other high school physical educators will be inspired to take on the challenge of making high school physical education programs relevant to all students.
