The Great Debate..begins (201)

The Great Debate has begun and the deliberations and rebuttals will continue next Monday in class. Congratulations on the great start and solid presentations.  We saw and heard some great arguments that were grounded in theory and national standards. Remember....

The Great Debate is on to determine which curriculum emphasis is more appropriate for the students in New York State. Remember our end goal is to have grade 12 students physically educated and in part that means being a recreationally competent mover in six activities/sports, a proficient mover in three other activities/sports spread across at least three different activity categories.  Here are the forms which are the basis for our assignment. This assignment is really a synthesis activity that is placing you in the context of a real educational situation. Although I have shown you some resources, these are not the only ones. Here are some others

• NYS - CI 

• NASPE Standards

• NASPE Advocacy Toolkit 

• Shape of the Nation report

• CDC

• Physical Activity Plan
