How long should a teacher touch upon the big sports such as football soccer basketball and so on for. Also how much of that time should be spent in real game play situations? |

I believe that those units are very big units to touch upon in the physical education field. Especially at the elementary and middle school level, because my belief is that if a student gets involved in a sport and sees that they like it they are more apt to play that sport recreationally and in high school. As to real game time situations I think that all depends on the grade level the higher the grade level, the more game like situations. |

As an elementary school p.e. teacher, I spend 2-3 weeks on the big units. I feel my job is to develop the skills necessary to play the games and not necessary to play the games themselves. I do play lead up games, but we do not actually play a real game of volleyball or basketball. I leave that to when they get to fifth grade. |
