A student who is enrolled in the Physical
Education Program in the eighth grade is expected to have basic competencies
in a variety of movement forms. Students will be provided an opportunity
to enhance these skills in a sequential program of fitness, dance, leisure,
team and individual sports.
Students will continue to gain competency
in basic skills and to be challenged by creative movement opportunities.
Use of analysis and interpretation in personal improvement and the implementation
of acquired information in tactical and strategic situations will be an
emphasis area.
