Physical Education Course Description
The
selection of specialized sport activities will
take place at the beginning of each nine week
period. The fitness-related component will
continue throughout the semester. Seniors
will be extended the courtesy of selecting
first, then juniors, etc. The number of
students enrolled in a class will be determined
by the availability of facilities, teaching
personnel and safety considerations.
Physical Fitness Class
The
goal of the fitness program is to provide the
students with the knowledge and opportunity to
improve and/or maintain their overall fitness
level. The fitness classes meet every
Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Two-thirds
of the student's final grade is based on the
fitness class. These classes emphasize the
development of those factors identified with
health-related fitness. There may be as
many as five fitness classes offered each
period. Within each of the fitness
classes, students will work on improving their
level of cardiovascular endurance, flexibility,
muscular endurance, muscular strength and body
composition.
*
All sophomores are assigned to fitness swimming.
Activity Class
The
goal of the activity classes is to provide
students with the knowledge and opportunity to
combine basic movement and fitness factors into
complex movement patterns. These
specialized activity areas are presented as
aquatics, team sports, individual sports and
lifetime sports. Each of the specialized
activity areas is organized into a maximum of
three levels of performance: beginner,
intermediate and advanced. Students will
be grouped for instruction and graded according
to the performance objective within their
particular skill levels.
*
All freshmen are required to pass nine weeks of
basic swimming instruction.
Adapted Physical Education Component
Students that are temporarily unable to
participate in the regular physical education
program due to a medical excuse, may be assigned
an adapted activity.
