Instructional planning considerations • What do we want students to know and be able to do? • VA Standard 3: The student will demonstrate the ability to independently apply basic principles of training and scientific concepts and principles to increase physical activity and improve personal fitness. • How do we know they got it? • Assessments of (during learning) and for (after learning) assessments • How do we get them there? • Plan for learning day–to–day • What do we do if they get it (early success) or don’t get it (challenges)? • Intervene – Extend
Active Learning Strategies • Teaching content through active, engaging instructional strategies • Let’s get active • Group Directions: • Using the same activity, how can you modify to help students with higher level content or different content that matches Teacher 1 or Teacher 2 needs as evidenced from the pre-test results: Resistance training is Resistance training helps Function of fat mass Body composition Muscular endurance defined/example To improve muscular strength Parts of the body stretched for flexibility Dynamic stretches Benefit of an active lifestyle
Post Test: How did students do? First, we need to ask - • What do you think the data will show? • How do we define success? • What is percentage change?
