Fritz teaches Creative Play, Dance and Gymnastic, Lifetime Physical Education, Motor Learning, Physical Activity and Health in the Classroom, Health and Wellness, and Mountain Biking. As an educator, he feels that it is important to make the material relevant to the students. He does this by connecting the material to practical applications. In most of his classes, students are exposed to lecture, small group work, various technology, discussion and question/answer periods. He tries to keep the learning environment comfortable and conducive to student participation.
