Gr.12 Physical/ Health Education Overview Active healthy lifestyles

1. Implementation Overview

1.1. Lifelong physical activity participation: The intent of the Grades 11 and 12 curricula is to help students develop the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes in personal planning for lifelong physical activity participation.

1.2. Taking greater ownership: Due to the age and maturity of students in Grades 11 and12, the goal is to encourage students to take greater ownership for their physical fitness and to become involved in physical activities suited to their own individual interests and abilities.

1.3. Healthy decision making: Leading an active healthy lifestyle will contribute to health and well-being. Helping students underst and the importance of making informed healthy decisions relevant to the five major health risk areas for youth continues to be the focus in promoting active healthy lifestyles for all students.

1.4. Choice and variety: A key element for lifelong physical activity participation is finding activities that one personally enjoys and feels successful at. Where schools can offer students a choice and variety of activities within the IN-class component or the opportunity to choose their own activities as part of the OUT-of-class component, students are more likely to choose something that they enjoy and that would be suited to their interests and abilities.

1.5. Active and interactive learning strategies:Brain research (Cone, et al.; Jensen) supports the approach of engaging students in active learning to increase retention and to make learning more relevant, meaningful, and enjoyable. In a PE setting, learning/teaching strategies engage students through a variety of physical activities that involve many of the multiple intelligences (e.g., bodily/kinesthetic, visual, spatial). From an HEperspective, interactive learning/teaching strategies (e.g.,brainstorming, Think-Pair-Share, role playing) promote social interaction andcooperative learning, which highlight interpersonal intelligence.

1.6. Cooperative and low competitive-type learning activities:Cooperative and low competitive-type activities help promote positive social interactions among students,promote inclusion, and allow students to work together toward achieving a common goal. Competitive experiences that allow students to participate at or near their own ability level contribute to increasing self-confidence and make the games or challenges more enjoyable.
