I have a project to create a curriculum, scope & sequence for a school year that lasts 36 weeks (32 classes). Does anyone have any examples or resources that could help me? I have never seen a curriculum, scope & sequence so I don't know where to begin. Help!!

Laura, Two other resources that may prove valuable: 1) Pangrazi's "Dynamic Physical Education for Elemantary School Children: 2) Landy's "Ready-to-Use PE Activities"

Laura, I am just about done with my curriculum. It took me a couple of years and I still edit it often. Just a bit of advice. Make it a work that you will use. I have seen many curriculum's sit on a shelf never to be implemented. I firmly believe that every physical educator must tailor make their own. Yes, I know it is a lot of work, but in the end, it will pay off. Cookie cutter models never worked for me. I did use a book that was very helpful when writing mine. If I can put my hands on it I will post the title. Good Luck. Jim Moyer |

Dear Colleagues, We are in the process of updating and revising our curricula in both Health and Physical Education. It would be great to get copies of existing ones throughout the country. You can email me and I'll respond with an address to send them or fax them if you so desire. Thanks, Don |

My school is currently being renovated. In order to accommodate all of our classrooms they have turned the gym into 4 classrooms. I live in the midwest which means from about Nov. - March and on inclimate weather days I will have to go to their classrooms. (K - 6) I will be faced with 25 - 30 students surrounded by classroom furniture for 40 minutes. Any suggestions for those indoor days? By the way, I'm told this will be for a least 2 years. |

Hello My name is Craig and I am a full-time student at Silver Lake College in Manitowoc, WI (30 miles from Green Bay) and I am a Middle Childhood and Early Adolescence major. Although I may never teach physical education I think it is an important part of education. I would like to teach 5-6-7-8th grade students. With physical education classes being phased out, what are some ways to incorporate physical activities throughout the curriculum? What is the minimum amount of physical activity students should have each day in school? Thanks. |

Hi I am Kim. I am a full time college student, majoring in elementery education. Although I am not going to school for physical education, I know the importance of the health of our children. I am planning on possibly teaching 2nd or 3rd graders. I have two questions: How do you deal with an overweight child in a class who is self-conscience and not very athletic? In the physical education classes today is self-esteem being incorporated in the curriculum and if so how? Thank you. |

In response to D.Sterling. Wow, that is appalling that P.E is so easily 'dropped' by your school. As for activities I'm not really sure what you could do for that amount of time. In the short time exercise videos, small games, yoga? may work but for two years with all the bad weather in the midwest I am unsure how you could fill the time productively. |

I agree that the amount of time for PE being decreased is appalling. Many schools are finding more and more trouble economically speaking to the point that the gym is now a small classroom and you have 40 students. A good way to get around that (if you have the time and motivation) is to show improvements in your students using such facilities and promoting what you have done with the situation that you have. By showing that PE is important enough to you to carry on through such horrible situations says a lot about PE and our profession. Good luck and best wishes! George |
