Physical education Flashcards
Example of a Critical element in a mature motor pattern for kicking a soccer ball
Following through with the kicking leg in the direction of the kick
Example of a locomotor skill
Galloping to music
Most important consideration in selecting a physical education activities for an elementary school class is to ensure that the selected activity
Enables all children to participate comfortably and enhance their movement skills
Strategy that is most effective and promoting upper elementary students application of goalsetting skills in the context of physical activity
Guide students in analyzing their own individual fitness test results and designing an activity program to enhance their personal fitness level
In the United States increased societal awareness of health and fitness issues as lead to what trend in physical education at the elementary school level
And increased emphasis on programs designed to promote individuals lifelong participation in physical activity
And second grade physical education activity involves throwing a beanbag through a target price 15 feet from the student. The performance objective of this activity most likely emphasizes
Cross lateral throwing movement
Structured movement activity example
Throwing a ball with your right hand while stepping forward with your left foot.
A structured movement incorporates specific quantifiable skills - something that can be judged as it’s “correctness”
Simplest to most complex elementary tumbling program
Animal movements, balance stunts, inverted balance, individual stunts
Accurately describes the proper follow-through body motion (when a third grader throws a ball)
As the trunk rotates, weight is completely shifted to the foot opposite to throwing side of the body
Formula to calculate your target heart rate for aerobic activity
220 minus your age multiplied by .70 equals the target heart rate
Target heart rate
Is generally set at 70% of an individual’s maximum heart capacity
Isometric exercises
Isolate specific muscle groups and are not considered comprehensive because they are designed to work only one muscle group at a time
A female teenager is considered obese on her body fat (body mass index )is higher than what percentile of other teens in her same age group and same gender
95th percentile
Based on California state framework at what grade level are competitive games appropriately introduced
Grade 8
Volleyball
Developed in the United States
And a well-designed elementary physical education program at what grade level should rhythmic activities be introduced
Kindergarten
Two examples of health related fitness
Cardiovascular fitness and body composition
Two examples of skill related fitness
Agility and balance
Locomotor skills
Jumping, skipping, galloping, sliding.
Skills that are basic movement skills that are performed in different directions and at different speeds
Nonlocomotor Skills
Stretching, twisting, pushing
Often referred to as static movements because they are passive movement performed while standing in place
Stretching
The most valuable of all non-locomotor movements it’s movement carries body parts away from the body Center core and moves joints and muscles through a range of movement.
All physical education activities should begin with stretching warm-up exercise
Object manipulation skills
Throwing, catching, kicking, striking
Complex motor patterns are basic to specialized sports and are performed within some kind of an object (e.g. a ball or a bat)
Requires hand-eye or foot-eye coordination and thus requires developmentally appropriate gross and fine motor abilities
Object manipulation skills
The average physical changes that occur in children are represented by periods of
1) rapid growth from infancy to early childhood
2) slow steady growth in middle childhood
3) rapid growth spurts during puberty
4) gradual measured slow growth during adolescence
