Taking The Gym Virtually

Teachers in Atlanta are going to take their gym classes virtual. The gyms in schools across the country are closed and that has put students in a position of not being able to be as active as they were before in school. Teaching Physical Education over the internet is a lot harder to do for teachers than doing it in the gym. You can adjust chemistry and biology easily, but physical education is quite hard to adapt to an online environment.
