2007-2008 Learning Units in Physical Education
September and October Cooperative Connection, Jump Rope, Double Dutch, Fitness Testing, and Juggling Cooperative Connection involves learning life time social skills needed to function in our society. The activities requires the students to learn skills, set goals, solve problems, communicate with others, and apply challenge by choice. In the process, students learn how to reflect on their experiences and gain insights into diversity, personal and social behaviors, and attitudes that they can apply to future settings. The Cooperative activities are integrated with all other activities taught in PE. Throughout the year Cooperative Connection will be the theme for the school year. Jump rope and double dutch skills are presented to help increase the students' cardio vascular endurance and muscular endurance level. Great for the students who took it easy over the summer. Fitness testing such as the sit-up and the Pacer test are administered in October. More fitness testing are given throughout the school year. Juggling for hand eye coordination.
