Reason for pursuing the Credit Flex Program for this course:
In an attempt to better provide educational quality and lifetime skills for overall wellness and lifestyle disease
prevention, all students will be gaining a (PE) “duel” credit while taking Health Education for a semester. The
Health mandated curriculum has a fitness for life component which will be the key area of focus for our PE
infusion for all health students. During a semester of health and the six health units of study students will gain
personal fitness knowledge, skills and laboratory experiences directly tied to all three elements of total
health/wellness that will allow them to put into practical fitness life applications consistently for improved
lifelong health/wellness.
DUEL CREDIT BENEFITS:
The health course is aimed toward development of attitudes as well as knowledge
and understanding of health matters. Our main objective is to assist the student in gaining
an intelligent understanding of the three areas of health in order to maintain good life
long wellness and to apply this knowledge now and throughout life with a desire to
achieve the highest degree of physical, social and mental fitness to prevent and reduce the
risks of lifestyle diseases. Laboratory of physical activity experience(s) will be part of
each unit with focus on fitness for life. Through this medium of physical experiences, we
introduce students to new physical activities, develop life activity skills, acquire
knowledge and understanding and to develop necessary social/mental concepts.
Students will have two days of classroom academic learning experiences and two
days of laboratory fitness experiences. In a typical five day week Friday will be a
collaborative activity day with both instructors and classes together to enhance the weeks
learning experiences as well as for the assessment piece.
The Credit Flex Program Option I am choosing is (Please check one):
__________ A. Test Out Option
__________ B. On-line Course Option
X * C. Educational Options Option (Health Course w/Duel PE Credit)
If an off-site instruction provider (internship, service learning, or work program) is involved, include an acceptance

4. What skills do I need to demonstrate and master in order to achieve credit for the
course I
am pursuing through Credit Flexibility? How do I plan to show mastery of this subject
area
(e.g. test, quizzes, essays, project, presentations)?
STANDARD 3 Physical Activity Plan
Based on the data collected from Benchmark A, for Benchmark B students will
develop and implement a one-week plan to address their physical activity goals.
The plan will include details of:
Physical activity goals;
Specific daily physical activities to accomplish the goals;
19
Written evaluation of two community fitness/recreational opportunities for
accessibility, affordability, quality of facilities and staffing;
Written evaluation of how well the plan helped meet the physical activity goals.
STANDARD 3 Physical Activity Recall
Students will recall the amount of physical activity completed over the course of a
seven-day week (including weekends). Each student receives a copy of the
physical activity pyramid worksheet. Students will refer to the pyramid to identify
possible physical activities.
Task 1: Within the pyramid, the student will identify the different types of
activities completed. Check the box (es) for the day of the week the student
participated in the type of activity.
Task 2: On the table below the pyramid, students will identify the intensity level
of the daily physical activities. In each block, students will record an L, M or V
representing the intensity (Light, Moderate or Vigorous) of the activity. Each
block represents 10 minutes of physical activity. For example, a student went for
a 20-minute jog on Tuesday. The student will place a V in two boxes to represent
20 minutes of vigorous physical activity. Physical activity can be accumulated
both in-school and after-school.
The task could be completed:
1. As a class activity in Physical Education.
2. As a take-home activity to be returned with a parent/guardian signature.
3. As a classroom activity to be monitored by the classroom teacher.
Goals specified in the physical activity are to:
1. Cut down on sedentary behaviors such as watching TV and playing
computer games for more than 30 minutes (0 days of the week).
2. Engage in leisure/playtime and strength/flexibility activities on two to
three days of the week.
3. Engage in aerobic and recreational activities on four to five days of the
week.
4. Engage in healthy daily activities (e.g., taking stairs, dog walking) on
every day of the week).
STANDARD 4 FITNESS ASSESSING FOR PLANNING FITNESS
The Ohio Health-Related Fitness Assessment is designed to meet three distinct
purposes. First, the assessment provides students, teachers and parents/guardians
with information regarding the student’s current fitness status. Fitness information
can be used as the basis for designing and individualized fitness program for each
20
student. Second, the assessment provides information for program evaluation. A
teacher can determine the number of students who meet or exceed the Health
Fitness Zone (HFZ), adjust the curriculum, if needed, and encourage
improvement for students at the lower end of the HFZ. Third, the assessment
provides information for statewide monitoring of fitness levels of Ohio students at
grade bands 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12.
The health-related fitness components to be assessed are aerobic/cardio-
respiratory capacity, muscular strength and endurance upper body, muscular
strength and endurance abdominals, and flexibility. These health-related fitness
components are identified as the required components to assess student
achievement of Standard 4, Benchmark A Criterion-referenced fitness
assessments compare student scores to a set standard of health-related fitness that
indicates a level of fitness necessary for good health regardless of other students’
scores (NASPE, 2010).
The student will develop a personal fitness portfolio that contains:
Fitness assessment results
A personal fitness plan that includes:
Evaluated results of fitness assessment and a developed
comprehensive fitness program.
Goals for improving and/or maintaining fitness levels.
Health-related fitness activities to improve or maintain body
composition, cardio-vascular endurance, flexibility, muscular
strength and muscular endurance. These activities should include
options for both inside and outside of the physical education
classroom.
Application of specificity, overload and progression as it applies to
the development and maintenance of health-related fitness.
Application of the FITT principles to the chosen physical activities
for each component of health-related fitness.
STANDARD 6
Each student develops a marketing campaign for physical activity for his or
her favorite activity. The marketing campaign could include a letter, poster, video
or another acceptable method to communicate the importance, benefits and
factors that lead to the enjoyment of the activity. The goal of the project is to
motivate and encourage others to engage in physical activity or a specific physical
activity outside of school. The marketing campaign should identify the potential
for social interaction and self-expression.
