Physical Education End of Year Subject Exam Study Guide Grades 2-5
Physical Education Principles: To become a Skillful Mover: You must master the 3 Groups of Skills: 1) Locomotor Skills 2) Non Locomotor Skills 3) Manipulative Skills Locomotor Movements: Travels through space over a moving base. Non Locomotor Movements: Movement in space over a fixed base (performed in place). Walk Run Bending Twisting Skip Hop Pushing Pulling Jump Leap Swinging Swaying Slide Step Stretching Falling Trot Gallop Strike Contact Crawl Roll Shake Wiggle Seat Scoot Dodging Turning Twirl Balancing Pathways/Directions: Movement Levels: Forward Backwards High, Medium, Low Straight Curve Speed of Movement: Sideways Diagonal Slow (ex. Walk) Zig Zag Circles Fast (ex. Run) Manipulative Monvements: Force of Movement: Throw Catch Dribble Light (ex. Kick/bunt a ball) Kick Strike Strong (ex. Bat a ball)
Manipulative Skills: Essential Elements: Learning the appropriate skills to manipulate an object by using either a Body Part or an Implement. 1) Throwing Correct body position to achieve a mature throw (over hand, hand & foot opposition). 2) Catching Correct body and hand position in order to catch (fingers pointing up for high catches, fingers pointing down for low catches. 3) Kicking Correct balance technique in order to lift leg to kick. 4) Strike Understand distance necessary to correctly strike a ball, being pitched or off a Tee. 5) Dribble Correct roll of the finger pads and wrist movement when dribbling. Locomotor & Maniuplative Movement Skills:3 Movement Phases: Each of the phases has critical elements of performance to develop good movement form. 1) Ready position phase (body position) 2) Execution phase (do it) 3) Follow through phase (ending body position) Scientific Principles: that affect movement and skills: 1) Gravity all things will fall down if not being held up. 2) Force Production/Absorption pushing away/bringing in an action/object. 3) Balance the ability to stay up without falling down. 4) Rotation to turn/move (wind) a body part so as when you unwind it adds an added force to an action.
Movement Concept: 1) Space Awareness: where the body moves. A) Location: self-space, general space. B) Direction: up/down, forward/backward, right/left, clockwise/counter clockwise. 2) Levels: low, medium, high. 3) Pathways: straight/curved, circle/zig zag, etc. 4) Extensions: large/small, far/near, etc. 5) Effort: How the body moves. A) Time: fast/slow, sudden/sustained. B) Force: strong/light. C) Flow: Bound/Free. 6) Relationships: with body parts, objects, people. A) Body Parts: Round (curved), Narrow, Wide, Twisted, Symmetrical, non-symmetrical. B) Objects: (and or with people) Over/under, on/off, near/far, infront/behind, along/through, meeting/parting, surrounding, alongside, around. C) People: Leading/following, mirroring/matching, unison/contrast, alone in a mass, solo, partners, groups, between groups. 7) Balances: (bases of support) different body parts and inversion & combo s. A) Feet - Feet & Hands B) Hands - Hands & Knees C) Head - Head & Hands D) Knees - Knees & Hands E) Forearms - Forearms & Knees F) Full Body - Curl, Roll Movement Concepts: Strategies & Tactics: Offense/Defense 1) Chasing Pathways, flow, time Offense 2) Fleeing Pathways, flow, time Defense 3) Dodging Force, pathway, time Offense/Defense
5 Basic Principles of Fitness: 1) Overload Principle most important principle of exercise and training. Means the body will adapt to the workload placed upon it. The more you do, the more you will be capable of doing. 2) F.I.T.T. Principle stands for Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type. These are the areas which someone could increase or overload in order to improve physical fitness. A) Frequency how often you will exercise. B) Intensity amount of effort or work that must be completed in a specific exercise. C) Time how long each individual session should last. D) Type what type of exercise you will be doing. 1) Cardiovascular, strength, flexibility 2) Resistance 3) Combination of both 3) Specificity Principle how you exercise should be specific to your goals. Training matches your goals. 4) Rest & Recovery Principle do not work the same muscles two days in a row, allow your body time to rest and recover. Often you can do cardio every day but rest after very intense workouts and have a least a day of rest between strength training workouts. 5) Use or Lose Principle muscles build strength (hypertrophy) with use and lose strength (atrophy) with lack of use. You lose fitness when you stop exercising.
Exercise & Fitness Principles: Principles of Exercise: Fitness: (def.) to prepare and 1) Frequency how often to make ready a combination of exercise to keep in shape. physical and mental attributes 2) Intensity how hard to that allow you to meet the exercise to build strength. demands of everyday life and 3) Duration how long to perform tasks that require above exercise to build endurance. normal effort. Being fit will Skill Related Fitness: decrease the chance of injury 1) Agility ability to rapidly change and bodily harm. It can improve the position of the body or the quality of life. direction. 2) Balance ability to keep from falling when a person is still or moving. 3) Coordination ability to use the senses together with body parts during movement. 4) Reaction Time time it takes a person to move. 5) Speed ability to move quickly. 6) Power ability to combine strength and speed.
5 Health Related Fitness Componets & Fitness Tests: 1) Cardiovascular & Cardiorespiratory Endurance Heart, Lungs. The ability of the circulatory & respiratory system to supply oxygen during sustained physical activity. Mile Run Test. 2) Muscular Strength amount of Force produced by the muscle in a single effort. Push Up Test. 3) Muscular Endurance the ability of the muscle to continue to perform without fatigue. The muscle is doing something over and over again. Curl Up Test. 4) Flexibility looseness or elasticity of the muscles. The ability of the joint to move through a full range of motion. It is affected by age, gender, size and condition of muscle also level of activity. Sit & Reach Test and Trunk Extension Test. 5) Body Composition percentage of body fat compared to Lean Body Tissue. Lean Body Tissue is made up of bone, water, and organs. A Healthful Body Composition is a high ratio of Lean Tissue to Fat Tissue in the body. Body Composition Test/Body Fat Test.
5 Fitness Componets Exercises & Activity: 1) Aerobic Exercises 2 min. or longer, 3x a week; 15 20 min. a day for improvement.

Body will adapt to work load and grow strength. 3) Light Weight & Exercises at least 15 repetitions. 4) Stretch muscles always before activity warmed up by Cardio work before stretching. 5) Fat percentage should be in the 5 30% range. Scale weight you need to know the % body fat to be of help otherwise scale is useless.
