# Grade 6 Physical Education and Wellness: Year at a Glance ## Overview Grade 6 Physical Education and Wellness brings together movement, health, and personal decision making across the year. Students build financial literacy skills by looking at borrowing and investing and how these choices affect well-being. They keep developing active living habits, exploring what motivates people to stay engaged in physical activity throughout life. Movement skill development continues with attention to structure in physical activities, movement patterns that improve performance, and conflict resolution during activity. Students explore character development by connecting well-being strategies to life opportunities and lifelong learning. Safety learning centres on risk and the factors that influence the outcomes of an action. Healthy eating study looks at how access to food shapes nutrition choices. Healthy relationships focus on understanding different perspectives as a foundation for respectful, positive connections. Growth and development rounds out the year, covering the physical, social, personal, and environmental changes of adolescence, including human reproduction from fertilization to birth.
