Recreation Physical Education

Credit: 0.25

Length: Semester course

Philosophy: Recreational Physical Education 1 CP1 is a semester elective for juniors and seniors. This course is a continuation of team and individual sports introduced in Physical Education 1 and 2 along with the introduction of several new activities and sports. The emphasis of the course is on the healthful benefits of sports and other recreational activities. Units which may be featured include: air force football, badminton, basketball, bocce ball, corn hole, golf, low organizational games, pickle ball, putt-putt golf, soccer, speedball, team handball, tennis, volleyball, and weight training. The teacher is the one that determines which activities will be covered during the semester.

Attendance: Physical Education is a lab type course. You need to be in class participating in order to get credit. All students receive one “Free” day if they are not in school for being ill, or out of the building for school related activities. After students use the free day they will be given zeros for every missed absence after that. They can make up the points missed on Net classroom (Net Moeller) in my class, under class information and using the prompts assigned for each sport. Students are to write the prompts for the sport that they missed; they are not to choose which one they want to write about. Then they will email me the work and I will grade the assignment and then update the student’s grade.

Travel: This course has some travel involved to places. Students will drive to

certain locations and then will also be dismissed from their when class is

over at normal time

Non Participation: After the second day of not participating because of sickness or injury the teacher will request a note from the student’s doctor or the school nurse. If the student is sick he will be asked to do things to the best of his physical ability. Also he will be asked to help referee or to keep a journal of the student’s activities. A student who is sick cannot get full credit on the day’s activities, but he can earn the points back later through extra credit. If a student has a injury and will be out for more than two days, he MUST have a note from the doctor stating such, and the expected date of return. Again the student will be asked to participate to the best of his physical ability. He will be given a chance to make up points at the end of the quarter through extra credit. He will not be given full credit for the day.

every day for class.

ATTENDANCE: 1 pts- Physical Education is an activity based class.

Extra credit is designed for the students who everyday are prepared, and have a great attitude and participation, and didn’t do well on fitness test or who have been injured.
