This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Is there actually any evidence that shows this sort of thing is valuable to make kids do in the middle of a school day? PE always just seemed degrading to me, and I'm not even that out of shape.

I reckon it's like any other subject. Depends on whether the teacher gives a fuck and/or has the resources to make it engaging and useful for kids

Beyond that, class size is a big thing in developing motivation. You can't really coach kids in huge classes so it just becomes a weird literal check box rat race.

Yeah, not having enough teachers could be a real issue, causing oversized classes
