Fitnessgrams/Cooper Institution
FitnessGram, released nationally in 1982 by The Cooper Institute and now in its 9th edition, was created to increase parental awareness of children\'s fitness levels by developing a practical way for physical education teachers to report the results of physical fitness and physical activity assessments. In support of Play 60, the Giants and Cooper Institute will add the Fitnessgram assessment tool in 30 local schools by 2011, helping area children stay fit and measure their fitness levels as they 'Play 60'. |
