Skateboarding class has found its way into schools! For sixth grader Carlos Cervantes, learning to skateboard takes a lot of work, but it pays off. “On the first day of class, I thought skateboarding would make me afraid. But I tried it,” said the 12-year-old boy. “After two days' practice, I felt more comfortable.”
Carlos is learning to skateboard in an after-school programme at West Middle School in Colorado. PE teachers start their skateboarding classes by teaching students how to put on their safety gear(装备). Students then learn how to fall without getting hurt. And they start practising. Sometimes they fall, but when they succeed(成功), they smile heartily.
Skateboarding keeps kids engaged(参与) in physical movement. It is good for their health and gives them new skills and interests. It also teaches kids the life lesson that if they keep trying something, they will finally succeed. Students who are learning to skateboard often spend hours practising a new trick before they get it right. “A baby will try to walk 600 to 900 times before he or she is successful,” the PE teacher Eric Klassen at West Middle School says. “We tell students that they shouldn't say ‘I can't do it’ unless they've tried 600 to 900 times.” And his students do take his advice to heart and keep practising until they finally succeed.
PE teachers in many schools have started teaching classes, such as skateboarding, yoga, and even rock climbing. These sports are called “the new PE”. They are often individual sports. Schools teach “the new PE” to help fight childhood obesity(肥胖) and develop lifelong fitness habits. Students get a chance to exercise, whether they make it onto a school team or not.
1. How did Carlos Cervantes's feelings about skateboarding change from the first day of class to two days later?
2. How do PE teachers start their skateboarding classes at West Middle School?
3. What are the advantages(优点) of skateboarding classes to students?
4. Why do schools teach “the new PE”?
5. Would you like to take skateboarding classes in your school? Why?
