The I-Poly High School physical education faculty are committed to the belief that students thrive in a safe and supportive environment where they are challenged to develop their movement abilities, knowledge base, personal responsibility and leadership skills. Students who know how to learn a new skill are equipped to become independent, life-long learners of motor skills.
Students select a movement goal and write a practice plan to meet that goal.
Students identify both an open skill and a closed skill and write a practice plan to accomplish each. Students design a practice plan for each stage of learning a motor skill. Students design a practice plan for learning a skill they have never done before. Students place above evidence in their portfolio with a reflection piece describing how motor skills are practiced and learned, and what that means to them as a lifelong learner. Students demonstrate the stages that individuals pass through to become proficient at a motor skill.
