8. Overview of Elementary Scope

9. Middle School (6−8) and Junior High School (7−9) Scope Help students refine the skills learned at the elementary level Enhance students’ fitness levels and understanding of the concepts Help students develop teamwork and cooperation skills Expose students to a wide variety of new activities (activity-based program) (continued)

10. Activity-Based Program Middle schools often teach a wide scope of short-unit activities –Team sports− Dual and individual sports –Dance− Aquatics –Outdoor adventure− Team-building activities –Fitness activities− Nontraditional activities

High School Fitness Focus (continued) Fitness content –FITT principle: frequency, intensity, time (duration), and type of activity –Overload principle: concepts of conditioning –Muscles, function, and types of contractions –Nutrition and safety considerations –Students apply content and develop personal fitness programs

18. Sequence Sequence involves the order, or progression, of content –Order of specific skills to be taught in a skill –Progression of skills and content taught in a lesson –Order of skills and content taught in a unit –Order of activities taught in a curriculum Fall activities, winter activities, spring activities (continued)

20. Summary Scope and sequence reflect the content taught and the order in which it is taught. –The elementary scope involves fundamental movements and fitness concepts. –The middle school scope addresses refining movements, enhancing fitness, and introducing students to a wide range of activities. –The high school scope may reflect a number of options: choice-based activities, lifetime activities, or a focus on fitness.
