National Standard 1

Demonstrates competency in motor skill and movement patterns needed to perform a variety of physical activities.

Students in PE are given ample opportunities to practice, refine, and implement a variety of physical skills. Lessons are planned around individual, partner, small group, and whole group practice. It is rare that students are standing and waiting their turn in my PE program.

For example, one would not find the whole class playing a soccer or basketball game. Instead one would see students practicing skills and participating in mini game like activities that use skills related to soccer.

For non-sport related activities such as dance and jump rope students are taught the movements, skills, and patterns. Once student have has ample opportunities to explore the movements on their own they are guided through the process of creating and learning a routine. In the end students are expected to create their own routines based on their abilities.

Sample Video
During a Jump Band Unit students practiced a variety of skills. The video demonstrates the beginning stage of groups working together to create mini-routines.
