Physical Education

Introduction

The student should gain the ability to demonstrate refined fundamental patterns, to perform variations and combinations of motor skills, and to apply basic offensive and defensive strategies in increasingly dynamic and complex environments. The student should learn to apply specialized skills that are basic to particular movement forms.

Demonstrate mature form for all fundamental manipulative skills (for example,

catching, striking, kicking).

Demonstrate mature form for combinations of fundamental locomotor skills (for

example, running, walking, skipping, galloping).

Use basic motor skills during invasion games, net/wall activities, striking/fielding activities, and target activities in increasingly complex situations (for example, dodging and evading an opponent, traveling at different

levels, speeds or directions).
