Strategies that foster positive attitudes toward lifelong physical activity. To help students learn to enjoy and value physical activity, they are given opportunities to safely explore new activities, work co- operatively with others, achieve a personal functional level of physical fitness, and plan for the achievement of personal goals in the field of sports and recreation. Strategies that foster active participation and enjoyment in the school and in the community. Physical education should include relevant and enjoyable learning experiences for students. In grades 11 and 12, students extend their learning experiences through participation in school activities and those outside the school such as community service and volunteer work.
Students actively participate in planning their learning activities.
Strategies that promote problem- solving skills. The workplace requires people who can work individually and with others to solve problems and complete tasks. Instructional strategies are designed to help students find active ways to solve problems, represent solutions in a variety of ways, and evaluate and modify their solutions based on individual and group feedback. Strategies that involve students with a variety of abilities and interests. Learning activities and choice of equipment, facilities, and materials should reflect student abilities and interests.
