Heart of the matter
Let’s see what you already know?Basic concepts in PE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMovZ_qCRJ0
Discussion Qs What issues are brought out by this song? Do you personally identify with this song in any way? How would you feel about your class if you were a
“right fielder” What changes could we make to a softball lesson
where one S is always in right field? How can we make “right fielders” enjoy PA for a
lifetime? How often does this scenario play out in real life?
What is meant by inclusive practices? How can you make your classroom a
positive place for learning and connections with physical activity (Right fielders, p.5)
Acknowledge and address the developmental levels and individual differences within and among learners in a class or age group of students or participants.
Provide activities that guarantee successful experiences for all students or participants and provide individual challenges for the athletically gifted, the below average, as well as the average learner.
The three principles of DAA Acknowledge and Address Individual Differences Ensure success and provide challenges Utilize developmentally appropriated equipment
Activity experiences should be appropriate for the developmental level of all students.Differentiated instruction –
adjusting task or language for low and high performers including students with disabilities
The “less physically educated” are more of our focus. Why? This can be challenging for us
Age appropriate Equipment sized and weighted for
success One ball for every child
Should 24 students wait to share one pencil?
Academic Learning Time in Physical Education“Academic” is a bit confusingBasically it looks at what percentage of time
students spend in various categories (not really segments of a lesson)
What might some of the categories be?
Example assignment Know each of the codes
and what they stand for
To insure increased ALT-PE:1) Eliminate elimination2) Maximize opportunities for skill
performance [“touches”]3) Utilize developmentally
appropriate equipment and tasks4) Ensure a high success rate in a
developmentally appropriate task relative to skill levels
When students are provided with simply “time on task” it may actually be a counter- productive period of time and/or activity.
Opportunities to respondWhy is this more accurate than simply
measuring activity time?
Hierarchy OTLs/OTRs ALT-PE Time on task

Important to provide feedback to students regarding what they are doing well and/or may need to improve.This includes motivational commentsLater at WCU, the type and amount will be
closely monitoredWhat might you say to this student?
Teacher Centered – teacher runs the show, students duplicate or mimic the teacher’s understandings1. Command2. Practice (includes task, stations)3. Reciprocal4. Self-Check5. Self-Selection
Student Centered – students have more control and choice in class. Students “create” their understandings.6. Guided Discovery (includes convergent)7. Problem Solving (divergent, exploration)8. Individual Program
Summary Document
Teacher should adjust activities so that task is not too easy (boredom) or too hard (frustration)Challenge progresses or builds from
previous learning
NASPE standard 5 Again, the environment in class ties into
our ability to promote lifetime physical activity.
It should be a positive place regardless of ability or other factors
