Through fifth grade, "highly competitive activities should be discouraged so that students of all abilities will experience success and self-confidence," the standards say. Teachers should avoid "putting students on display" and having children choose team members. Furthermore, "expectations for students' fitness levels should be established on a personal basis rather than setting a single standard for all students at a given grade level." The point is for everyone to embrace fitness and find it fun

"Human target games (e.g., dodgeball) and drills that promote aggressive behaviors by attacking and overpowering other humans are not (to) be permitted," the standards say.
