Skateboarding Joins the Curriculum
Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006
We wrote a blog on something along these lines a few months back, where an American teacher was organising after-school skateboarding lessons and clubs. But now it’s being taken one step further, with some schools actually implementing skateboarding as part of the P.E curriculum.
Richard Cendali at Douglass Elementary School in Colorado learnt to skate recently at the age of 60, and decided he was going to pass the skill on. The students pad up, and learn how to do grabs and jumps, turns and basic skateboarding in the school gym during P.E lessons.
