Hello there -

There's encouraging news about reasons to have PE in the November issue of
the California Teachers Association (CTA) magazine. The six feature
articles are listed with the title Fitness Boosts Brainpower. There is a
quote from a psychiatrist from Harvard Medical School saying: "It is
helpful to think of the brain as a muscle. One of the best ways to maximize
the brain is through exercise and movement."

You can read the articles at:

Or go directly to the online issue at:

CTA has over 330,000 members.
