m. Content is linked for transfer of Teacher connects skills to relevant activities. For learning within physical example, the teacher may connect the overhand education units and among throwing motion to baseball, football, volleyball, other subject area content etc. The teacher connects content to prior and future learning within physical education and across disciplines. For example, the teacher relates the scientific principle of of Newton’s Laws Motion with rotation in gymnastics. The mathematical concept of elapsed time is connected to timekeeping and place performance in games and sports. n. Student performance is Teacher actively monitors during the lesson to continually evaluated to guide assess understanding of the skill or concept. This instruction is done during guided practice, questioning, independent practices (drills, lead-ups, games, etc.) consistently. Student learning and performance guides the planning and instruction for teaching. For example, if for the “opposition” overhand throw is not demonstrated, the teacher reinforces the concept of opposition in cues, demonstrations, explanations, lead-ups, and possible future lessons. Teacher adapts activities, drills, lead-ups, etc. according to student success. o. Lesson presentation is changed Teacher actively monitors student progress in response to observation of throughout the lesson, (through observation of student performance and/or student performance, questioning for information from formative understanding, student worksheets, etc.), and assessment changes lesson presentation based on current levels of performance and content understanding. The teacher may choose to refocus instruction on a single component of the skill, such as opposition. p. Independent learning is The students use resources within and outside the promoted, encouraged and school to increase their knowledge and skills. For reinforced through daily example, a bulletin board is created using assessments pictures, activity logs, and/or reflections of students applying skills and content outside of class.
