Clinton News-Record, 1984-11-07, Page 19, Phys ed skills are important as other lessons By Stephanie Levesque Beat skills in physical eidueattan are as important for children as are Communication and computation skills says a University of: Western Ontario professor. Professor Auke Van Hoist of Althouse College, the teachers' college at Western, said to achieve these skills, he has three goals. These goals are part of the physical education program he has. written for primary grades. This program is used in whole or in part, by the Huron -Perth Separate School Board and the Perth and Huron County Boards of Education. The three goals in Prof. Van Holst's physical education program are reasonable knowledge and proficiency in motor skills, understanding and, applying the knowledge of the effects of activity on the body and the role of activity in daily living. He says there has been a definite improvement in the physical activity of Canadians over the past few years. On top of this, Prof. Van Hoist says research shows a decline in the severity of heart disease among Canadians. There is a much greater awareness of physical activity now, says the university professor -author. "Almost anyone would agree that it is good for you," said the professor. However, not- everyone agrees that physical activity is for them. This, said the professor, is where lifestyle changes have to be made. "That's the only way we'll ever be able to make any changes in my opinion," he says. Prof. Van Hoist was a presentor at the Huron -Perth Separate Schools systems PA day. His goal for that day was to make the teachers feel comfortable with his physical education programa ti The first career day in Huron County was held at CHSS on November 4 with a total 64 col- leges and representatives of various occupations on hand. Students were given the oppor- tunity to ask questions and pick up brochures on the subjects they would like to take after high school.

The final activity of the day was a tool building seminar.
