1. Southampton University
Teaching AS/A2 PE

2. What time do we finish! 2 things that will happen today
Lunch will be at 12.30pm
We will finish at 2.30pm

3. When I first began teaching ‘A-Level’ PE…
Overuse of the core text book
Dictating notes
Revision occurred only after the content had been covered
Students knowledge and understanding was assessed largely through ‘hands up’ and ‘tests’
Students stayed in their seats
Used dated examples
Spoon fed the students
Students relied on ‘unreliable’ internet research

4. Today
We will focus on the lesson itself and how your teaching can avoid my early experiences!
Introduce a framework/model for teaching theoretical PE
Apply and try the model!

5. The Sport IQ Model Relate Review Revise Movement State changes
Study skills
Play games
Music

6. Subject knowledge
Select an area of the specification. You will be applying what we do today to your area throughout today and plan the ‘perfect’ theoretical lesson.
One group will teach their lesson at the end of the day!

7. 1. Health, exercise and fitness
– definitions of health and fitness and the
relationship between them
– consideration of the problems associated with
trying to define health and fitness

stamina, muscular endurance, strength,
speed, power, flexibility

time, agility, co-ordination and balance
– effect of lifestyle choices on health and fitness.

– the seven classes of food and their exercise-related function – fats, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, fibre, minerals and water – the need for a balanced diet and the energy balance of food – the performer’s use of nutritional information based on their activity, difference in diet composition between endurance athletes and power athletes – definitions of obesity and the limitations in trying to define it – percentage body fat/body composition and Body Mass Index (BMI) as measures of nutritional suitability.

9. 3. Decision making decision making – reaction time, simple
reaction time, choice reaction time, response
time, movement time and the relationship
between them

10. 4. Methods of guidance

13. Review
How much do your students already know about the topic you are about to begin?
Does the lesson follow on from another topic? (opportunity to recap)
This can be a good opportunity to create the classroom climate you wish to achieve

14. Review examples AS/A2 as a student? AS/A2 as a trainee?
Problems, surprises and concerns?
What do you already know? (10 questions)

15. Some ‘review’ examples
Time bombs
Overtake

16. Relate
Can the students see the relevance of the content with regards to;
Modern day sport?
Their own sporting experiences?
The practical components of their course?
Let’s try this with the topic of media, sponsorship and sport

17. Media, sponsorship and sport
What examples of sponsorship do you see in the following video clip?
What would be the differences between this and the Champions League Final?

18. The golden triangle
Take a look at the photocopied sheets
Task A and B

19. Some ‘relate’ examples
Chain gangs – task A and task B
Picture perfect

20. Picture perfect

30. Theory and practical combined?

31. Revise
A chance to use exam papers, mark schemes, glossaries etc in a different way
and to develop revision/examination techniques

32. Using glossaries and definitions
Definition bingo
Relay runners
Boxing clever

33. Using exam papers and mark schemes
Red herrings (use other ppt)

34. Using exam papers and mark schemes
What’s the question?
Upward
- Type of movement - extension
- Prime mover - triceps brachii
- Type of contraction - isotonic concentric
Downward
- Type of movement - flexion
- Type of contraction - isotonic eccentric [6]
Q.Identify the type of movement, prime mover and type of muscle contraction, that occurs at the elbow joint during both the upward, and downward phase, of the press-up.
