Philosophy Of Physical Education

Policies and Procedures
1. The philosophy that I choose for my Physical Education Program would be the enjoyment of leisure activities for a lifetime. As a teacher I feel that my job is to teach the students how to make physical education a part of their life. The more I think about it I see that it is not all about teams sport as much as it is having the students develop a "womb to tomb" mentality.
2. The curriculum objectives of my Physical Education Program will include safe participation, improving fitness levels, maintain a lifetime of activity, and exhibit responsible behavior. First of all I want to make sure that my students are not getting injured. I want them all to participate in games that are fun and safe. I also want
The scope of my P.E. Program would be team sports, dance, aquatics, games, fitness, individual sports, and outdoor adventure in that order. I believe that keeping the individual activities towards the end of the semester will stress to students that just because school is over doesn't mean that they have to stop exercising. This will give the students some ideas for their summers and for the rest of their life. In the team sports unit we will play games like; basketball, baseball, football, floor hockey, and speedball. We will then do line dancing, square dancing and ballroom dancing in our dance unit. For aquatics we will try and just get exercise by working on the different types of swimming. For fitness we will set up individual conditioning programs for the students and they will work at their own pace to accomplish their goals. For individual sports we will play archery, bowling, and golf units. For the outdoor activities we will do some hiking and maybe do some map reading and trying to find things that are hidden around in that
If the student has an excused absence, then once every two weeks we will have one free day. Students who have no make-ups will be able to do an activity of their choice, but students who have missed any time will have to do a different activity with the teacher to make up for missed time.
10. Students will be expected to properly take out and put the equipment away for each class period. That way each class can come and get the equipment out, and they will put it away for the next class to use it. This way all students in each class period will have to do the same amount with the equipment. Also each class will have to leave the equipment as they found it. All students are to respect the equipment and any mistreating will result in lost points and in some cases other discipline. As the teacher I will have the equipment ready in the morning and I will store it away at the end of the day.
11. I will grade my students depending on how many points they have. I will use a positive grading scale. I will look at their participation level as well as how many times they dressed out for class. I will then take an average of how many points they got over the quarter. I will grade on effort not
