Grade 10 Physical Education A

Physical Education 10 offers a complete physical education experience for students. The course, which includes a mix of health-related information and physical fitness activities, focuses on teaching students how to live both healthy and active lives. Students begin the course by reviewing the requirement of 72 hours of supervised, physical activity and learn to document their activity in a PE Log. They can also track their activity by using their Moveband, an electronic fitness tracker. Next, students explore a variety of health and physical fitness components such as using fitness equipment and playing organized games. When students are asked to complete an exercise or activity, they receive instruction on the basic elements and the proper execution of each movement so that they can get the most benefits from the exercise. Regardless of what activity the student is asked to do within a given day, they are encouraged to get up and move for a certain amount of time in each lesson. Students can be active by performing different exercises, engaging in different activities, or by using items from their grade-appropriate physical education kits, which are available to purchase. This kit, which is designed to work in conjunction with the course content, contains age-appropriate exercise and activity items. Students who participate in organized team practices, games, and/or matches can also document activity within the Sports Verification Log. Adaptive physical education activities are available for this course.
