GOAL:

It is an academic subject that uses a planned, sequential program curriculum and instruction, based state and/or national physical education standards, which results in all students, including those with disabilities, developing the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to adopt and maintain a physically active lifestyle.

 

CLASSROOM ATMOSPHERE:

 

The class will have cooperative group and individual activities. Students will engage in a variety of activities in a safe environment. Sportsmanship and participation will be stressed. Any student that is engaging in unsafe behavior will be removed from the activity immediately. Inappropriate behavior and lack of being prepared will result in parental contact and grade reduction.

Students will not be permitted to participate in class activity if they do not have sneakers.  Crocks, boots, dress shoes, etc., are not acceptable. The school dress code applies to this class. Please do not bring valuables to gym class. It is the student’s responsibility to secure all valuables in their hall lockers before coming to gym. If a student wishes to lock their possessions in the locker room, they may bring in a lock and secure their items for that period only. Locks must be removed at the end of the period.

 

CLASS PROCEDURE:

STUDENT EVALUATION:
