Developing The Proper Mindset
Physical Education IS NOT play time
Physical Education IS NOT athletic sport practice time
Physical Education IS NOT social hour
Physical Education IS NOT boot camp
Physical Education IS NOT anti-intellectual
Developing The Proper Mindset
Physical Education IS (in my words) a time to use physical activity as a means of instructing and promoting a healthier lifestyle
Physical Education is intentionally structured and implemented based on content standards written by NASPE and adjusted and adopted by the state
Important Terminology
Domains of Learning
Psychomotor – “thinking & doing”
Cognitive – “knowledge & understanding”
Affective – “social/emotional/ value”
Can you think of how this applies to physical education?
Middle School PE Standards
Physical Education Model Content Standards (clearly derived from the NASPE standards)
Go to website to view 6-8 standards http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st/ss/documents/pestandards.pdf
“In middle school the content standards emphasize working cooperatively to achieve a common goal, meeting challenges, making decisions, and working as a team to solve problems.”
Standards In Action
6th grade 1.3 “Strike an object consistently, using a body part, so that the object travels in intended direction at the desired height.”
Read with the other standards, what is the context? (like reading scripture)
What activities can we create that meet this standard?
What transferable sport skills can you see?
How can you organize activities in class that meet this standard?
Standards In Action
6th grade 2.8 “Illustrate how the intended direction of an object is affected by the angle of the implement or body part at the time of contact.”
How may this relate to standard 1.3?
What other ways might we demonstrate this content?
How can we use this to compare and contrast various sport activities?
Standards In Action
6th grade 4.3 “Identify contraindicated exercises and their adverse effects on the body.”
First one needs to define “contraindicated”.
Focus on exercises/activities that middle school students may commonly encounter.
Explain the dangers with enough detail so they have full understanding but do not overdo the technical content.
Be sure to offer effective substitutions for all CI exercises.
Make them work!
Your turn to establish relationships between standards.
