Lifetime fitness depends upon understanding how each fitness component is developed and measured and how to design and implement a personal fitness plan that supports a healthy, active lifestyle. Essential Questions: How does effective and appropriate movement affect wellness? Why do I have to understand concepts of movement when I can already perform the movement? To what extent does strategy influence performance in competitive games and activities? Why do I have to show good sportsmanship and follow the rules when others do not? How can I become more mentally prepared for competition and sports performance? How do I develop an appropriate personal fitness program and find the motivation to commit to it? How do you realize age-appropriate fitness? Core Content/Objectives 21 st Century Learning Instructional Actions Concepts What students will know Performing movement skills in a technically correct manner improves overall performance and increases the likelihood of participation in lifelong physical activity. Knowing and understanding concepts of movement will improve performance in a specific skill and provide the foundation for transfer of skills in a variety of sports Skills What students will be able to do Demonstrate mature, mechanically correct form and control when combining and modifying movement skills in applied settings. Use information from internal and external sources to detect, analyze, and correct errors in movement skills and patterns used in applied settings. Transfer specialized movement skills that use similar patterns What 21 st century competencies will be explicitly developed Apply critical thinking and problem-solving strategies during structured learning experiences Assume a leadership position by guiding the thinking of peers in a direction that leads to successful completion of a challenging task or project Demonstrate a positive work ethic in various settings, including the classroom and Activities/Strategies Learning Activities/ Differentiation Interdisciplinary Connections Flexibility Muscular Endurance Speed Agility Power Balance Strength Coordination Cardiovascular Endurance Assessment How learning will be assessed Teachers observation of students participation Fitness Log Sportsmanship

In order for all participants and spectators to experience the maximum benefit from games and sports, everyone must demonstrate knowledge and commitment to sportsmanship, rules and safety guidelines. Understanding fitness concepts and skills and integrating them into your everyday routine supports wellness. Physical fitness is the ability of your whole body to work together efficiently to be able to do the most work with least amount of effort. Developing and implementing a program that utilizes appropriate training principles is necessary for lifetime Achieving and maintaining fitness requires ageappropriate intensity, duration and frequency of exercise. Ongoing feedback and assessment is necessary in determining the effectiveness of a personal fitness program. from one movement activity to during structured learning another. experiences. Design and perform smooth flowing sequences with intentional changes in direction, flow, and speed. Predict changes in movement performance based on the application of balance, counter balance, weight transfer, and agility. Analyze the impact of kinesthetic awareness, "perfect" practice, motivation, and appropriate challenges in facilitating the learning and refinement of a movement skill. Analyze the role, responsibilities, and preparation of players, officials, trainers, and other participants and recommend strategies to improve their performance and behavior. Investigate the impact of rules and regulations on the health and safety of participants. Predict the short- and long-term physical, social, and emotional benefits and potential problems associated with regular physical activity. Summarize the causes, influences, and responses of body systems during exercise. Develop and implement a training program to maximize health benefits and prevent exerciserelated injuries and illnesses.
