This resource supports Middle School Physical Education teachers in
promoting healthy activity levels among their students, both in and
outside the PE facilities. Its comprehensive curricular approach
addresses National Physical Education standards but, unlike
traditional curricula, encourages teaching sports and fitness as
connected components instead of separate. This book is rooted in the
progressive Sport Education model, which facilitates students’
personal growth with the learning of individual and team sports.
Fitness programming and cooperative activities are key aspects of this
program. Unique to this book is a section detailing what to do if
students have not yet learned movement concepts and skills at the
elementary level. Each chapter includes a list of key concepts and
review questions. A rationale for the Sport Education model, lesson
plans, sample assessments, and safety considerations are provided.
Sample forms and documents round out the book for a seamless
transition from elementary PE to the middle level. Middle School
Physical Education teachers and PE administrators will find this
classroom-tested curricular approach accessible and easy to implement.
As your students undergo psychomotor, cognitive, and affective change
throughout the middle-grade years, this book lays out a PE program
that not only acknowledges, but celebrates, their development, and
improves physical skills while working past any fitness weaknesses.
