Packing a gym bag can be tough, especially for girls. While boys just need a change of clothes and deodorant, girls may need more. This article will show you how to pack your gym bag.
Steps
Get a gym bag that's right for you. Make sure you like it, because you're probably going to be stuck with it for a while. Also, pick a bag that you won't be embarrassed to be seen with. Would you rather have a plastic bag or a nice gym bag? Think about that.
Know the essentials that you need. Those usually are things such as: a t-shirt, shorts, deodorant, hair ties, etc.Advertisement
Make sure you bring your own water bottle. Drinking out of your own water bottle is better than drinking from a water fountain or somebody else's water bottle.
Get comfortable clothes. You wouldn't want to be itchy and uncomfortable during gym class. This means that you should not pack itchy knitted clothing, etc.
Make sure that your running shoes are right size for you. If they're not, you could get seriously injured. They have to be not too big and not too small for you.Also bring extra socks in case of emergencies.Advertisement

Physical Education TeacherPE class is very social. It's a great place for people to make friends because a lot of times we pair off into partners or we make groups of five or six at a time. It's trusting yourself and jumping in and not being afraid to join a group. Usually, that helps. You want to use friend-maker words with your classmates, not friend-breaker words. Use encouraging words like “great job” and “I like how you're using your fingertips to dribble.” - QuestionWhat are the worst shoes for PE class?Paige Bowen, MA, EdMPaige Bowen is a Physical Education Teacher at Oconee County Primary School in Watkinsville, Georgia.

Physical Education TeacherShoes that would really be bad for PE class are flip flops and sandals, so shoes that don't have a covered toe or heel. Also, shoes that have very high heels, like boots. Shoes that tie are really the best. Velcro is not the best because a lot of times it won't stay.
