In this article, the authors discuss some activities that will develop health-related fitness for students and recommend that teachers present activities that make students feel capable, confident and competent to their participation in physical activity. The authors present NASPE's Physical Best fitness education program and the Cooper Institute's FITNESSGRAM (Cooper Institute, 2004) health-related fitness assessment which have been developed to integrate knowledge, participation in, and assessment of health-related physical fitness for school-aged children (AAHPERD, 1999). Through these two programs, students discover that participating in physical activity contributes to their health, wellness, and enjoyment for a lifetime. The tables accompanying this article describes activities that prepare students physically for the FITNESSGRAM assessment. The activities focus on the Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER), push-up, curl-up, back saver/sit/reach, and trunk lift tests. (Contains 5 tables.)
