B. MOVEMENT COMPETENCE: SKILLS, CONCEPTS, AND STRATEGIES
OVERALL EXPECTATIONS
By the end of this course, students will:
B1. perform movement skills, demonstrating an understanding of the basic requirements of the skills and applying movement concepts as appropriate, as they engage in a variety of physical activities;
B2. apply movement strategies appropriately, demonstrating an understanding of the components of a variety of physical activities, in order to enhance their ability to participate successfully in those activities.
SPECIFIC EXPECTATIONS
B1. Movement Skills and Concepts
By the end of this course, students will:
B1.1 perform stability and locomotor skills in combination in a variety of physical activities while responding to external stimuli (e.g., execute activities with control during a fitness circuit; maintain balance during a sequence of movements in an aerobic routine or during a wall climb) [PS, IS, CT]
Teacher prompt: “How can you adjust the activities during the fitness circuit or aerobic routine to either increase or decrease the strenuousness of the workout while still being able to move with control?”
Student: “You can change the tempo of movement or the type of movement. For example, you can change from walking to skipping to leaping. You can also increase or decrease the tension on any equipment you are using. As you change the tempo or the type of movement, you need to make sure that you do so in a smooth rhythm so that you can maintain your balance.”
B1.2 perform locomotor and manipulation skills in combination in a variety of physical activities while responding to external stimuli (e.g., move to intercept an object in a territory game; draw close to the target in a target game) [PS, IS, CT]
Teacher prompt: “Give some examples of how travelling differs in net/wall games, striking/fielding games, and territory games. Are there any similarities? Are there also differences in sending methods? What do effective sending skills have in common in all of these game categories?”
Students: “These games require very different ways of travelling. But within each category of games, the movement skills are very similar. You move side to side and up and back in tennis and volleyball, as you do in sepak takraw. You sprint in cricket, as you do in base- ball, and you dodge and deke in football and hockey, as you do in ultimate.” “The sending methods also differ from one category to another. We use a forehand stroke in tennis, we strike a ball with a bat in cricket, and we pass in broomball. However, the same principles apply to sending in any of these game categories: you need to start in a ready position, keep your eyes on the object as you make contact with it, continue to swing in the direc- tion of the hit, and then get ready for the next action.”
