Program Description:
The physical education program is modeled around fitness education. Students will
have forty five minute class periods once a week for thirty six weeks. The program is
broken down into four units: balancing and non-locomotor, developmental movement,
fitness and manipulative skills. My goal is to give a solid base for students to build their
active lifestyles upon. The skills that students are taught in my classes will be
continuously reviewed in their lives. Students will be taught at a developmentally
appropriate pace by starting with simpler tasks in primary and maturing to utilization
levels by the end of their secondary years.
Rationale:
Elementary school is where students first discover the basics to physical activity. They
learn locomotion, non-locomotor movement and manipulative skills. For some, this
could be the first time they have been taught these tasks so it is important that students
set a strong base to build their skills from. In the first unit, I focus on non-locomotor and
balancing skills. Just like a baby, one must be able to stand before they can walk. Tasks
in this unit get gradually more difficult by starting with stretching, bending and balancing
and ending with application of these skills through teamwork. In this unit, students take
the skills they learned in the previous classes and apply them to new skills. Students
use balancing, stretching, etc. to learn skills such as locomotion and jumping. Some of
these skills need more attention at certain grades. For example, in the second unit
kindergarteners, first and second graders are allotted two classes for spatial awareness.
At this age students need to be reminded about such skills because they are not routine
yet, versus third through fifth grade where students know not to run into each other, for
the most part.
Half way through the year, students move into the third unit. This unit is
dedicated to fitness and showing students that fitness is fun. Fitness is taught before
manipulative skills because during the fourth unit fitness integration is used constantly.
Fitness is also taught step by step. I start with teaching students why fitness is
necessary and the benefits because we believe that students should now why they
should do something. Then I move to heart rate and what target heart rate is. Once
student have an understanding of heart rate and the reason behind fitness, we get into
the motion of fitness. I spend two class periods with each grade focusing on individual
fitness. After student have a grasp on that, students are shown different ways to apply
fitness into their everyday lives in a fun, exciting and relatable way.
The final and largest unit in the program is the manipulative skills unit. In this unit,
traditional sports skills are taught at a pace that aligns with national standards. I make
sure that students get the most of their physical education time by only teaching skills
that are developmentally appropriate. For example, striking with long and short handled
implements are given more time than dribbling with hands because this skill involves
more hand-eye coordination. In combination with my four units, I include fitness testing
twice; once at the beginning of the year and once at the end. This is a way for students
to monitor progress of their fitness. After completing the initial fitness testing, students
will see their scores and be asked to create a goal to meet at the end of the year. Each
unit will include ways that students can improve on fitness testing. My program is very
gradually-centered. Every lesson flows to students can build upon what they learn.
