Kinesiology

Skill themes are fundamental movements that form the foundation for success in sports and physical activities in later years. Initially they are studied in isolation, and then in later grades they are combined with other skills and used in more complex settings, such as found in dance, games, and gymnastics

learn movement concepts such as locations, directions, levels, pathways, and extensions

Responses are often awkward and repeated movements in succession cannot be done

Where correct skill movements appear more frequently

Skill is used in combination with other skills in less predictable situations

They could focus outward on a goal or larger dimensions of an activity

Curricula most often divided into the areas of educational games, educational gymnastics, and educational dance

run,hop, skip, gallop, jump
Walking, running, hopping, skipping, galloping, sliding, chasing, fleeing, dodging

Turning, twisting, rolling, balancing, transferring weight, jumping and landing, stretching

Throwing, catching, collecting, kicking, punting, dribbling, volleying, sticking with rackets

-The key is movement exploration not sports.
-This approach stress the cognitive involvement of children, the development of positive self-concepts, and the establishment of broad repertoire of movement and skill.

Movememnt Education grade level

Primary goal that children and youths develop and value a physically active lifestyle

Physical-education activities allow students to interact socially while being physically active

Physical activity outside of school is promoted

Students learn behavioral skills such as goal setting, overcoming barriers, and seeking support

Physical-activity homework incorporates family members in physical activity

Schools engage with community agencies to provide after-school physical-activity opportunities

Schools support physical-activity breaks in classrooms and physical activity sessions to start the school day.

Physical education one semester than health education the next.
Knowledge & skill necessary for the maintenance and improvement for health related fitness. Technology to monitor, fitness evaluations.

FitnessGram

Uses risk and challenge to develop personal and social skills through a variety of natural and contrived activities.

-To gain skill, to participate safely, and to gain utmost satisfaction from participation.

-Problem-solving, self-concept, and personal growth. (obstacles produce risk, which produce anxiety and stress. When the participant learns to deal with the stress and overcome the anxiety to solve the problem created by the obstacle, then personal growth is assumed to occur.

To learn outdoor sport skills and to enjoy the satisfaction of competence.

To live within the limits of personal ability related to an activity and environment.

To find pleasure in accepting the challenge and risk of stressful physical activity.

To share this experience and learning with classmates and authority figures.

Climbing walls, orienteering, adventure education trip to outdoor facilities. Students spend extended periods of time together, sharing meals and staying overnight.

Building intra and interpersonal relationships (communication, cooperation, trust, emotional development, problem solving)

Help younger people cope better with a complex social world, to achieve a higher degree of control over their own lives, and to contribute more positively to the small social worlds of which they are a part.

Assist in maintaing appropriate behavior in class and to help children learn to be more responsible

Respect for others
Demonstrating effort within class
Self-direction as a learner and class member
Helping others
Demonstrating those qualities outside the physical education setting

Good competition is fun and educationally useful. Games must be small-sided so that all players are active. Learning of multiple roles within sport.

Emphasizes competition and learning about multiple roles within sport.

Knowledge of the kinesiology sub-disciplines blended with activity programs that split time between the classroom and gymnasium.

Medieval Times Unit, folk dance, Olympic Games

What is the definition of PE?

Emphasis on adapted physical education not being strictly a placement but a system of services with sufficient supports to enable most students to receive their education as part of the regular classroom population. The goal that all students with disabilities should be in a regular classroom.

focuses on the modification of regular activities to enable individuals with disabilities to participate safely and successfully

focuses on the rehabilitation of functional postural and body mechanics deficiencies

focuses on basic fitness and motor-skill training to raise student’s skills and abilities to the point where they can participate with peers.

Contributes to general lack of outcomes. Improvement, achievement, and mastery are themes that are neither readily apparent in multi-activity programs nor likely in programs that focus on keeping students busy, happy and good.

Main theme curricula allow students to focus for longer periods of time on mastering content. It takes time for students to develop basic techniques, to understand the manner in which the activity is pursued or competed, to master tactics involved with the activity, and to engage in the activity for long enough time to gain confidence and develop sufficient skills to enjoy the activity. When they enjoy the activity students are more likely to pursue it outside of school time. The different curriculum instruction models all depend on allowing sufficient time for students to become skilled and confident in the activity, thus allowing them to experience the enjoyment of performing the activity.

When is sport based taught

The sense of mastering something important is denied most students in secondary physical education programs in this country
