Upper School Teaching Model
Scope and Sequence
Concepts (big ideas) taught throughout the units:
Rules
Respect
Responsibility
Safety
Cooperation |
Exploration
Fitness
Technique
Fundamental Movement |
As students progress from the elementary to the middle school level the focus for physical education changes. Skill themes and movement concepts still play a role in the instruction, but the focus shifts from building a foundation to utilizing it in a variety of movement forms. Along with continued learning and development of skills, our goal is to expose students to a broad array of content areas designed to stimulate interest in lifetime and health-enhancing activities.
