Physical education helps students develop the knowledge, fitness levels, motor skills, and personal and social skills to obtain the ultimate goal of a lifetime of physical activity and health. I received my bachelors and masters degrees from Eastern Michigan University. I have been teaching for Grosse Ile Township schools since 1996 in Physical Education. The best way to reach me is by phone (734) 362-2708. I teach the state curriculum for physical education. My rules are the following: a positive attitude; to work hard and always give your best effort; to respect others and equipment; to use best behavior; to improve on yourself (skills, effort, attitude, fitness level and sportsmanship). I teach the state core curriculum. Michigan has six Physical Education Content Standards and Benchmarks which were approved by the State Board of Education in February 2007. These Content Standards and Benchmarks were adopted directly from the current six National Association of Sport and Physical Education’s (NASPE) standards.Grade Level Content Expectations (GLCE) were approved by the State Board of Education in April 2008. The Grade Level Content Expectations were developed in accordance with the newly adopted Content Standards and Benchmarks, and are available in: (4) Individual Across the Grades Documents for K-8. Across the Grade documents provide a look at each GLCE in a matrix format from kindergarten through eighth grade. The expectations have been aligned to show progression of a concept from one grade to the next. The four documents represent the four strands of physical education: 1. K-8 Motor Skills and Movement Patterns Across the Grades Document 2. K-8 Content Knowledge Across the Grades Document 3. K-8 Fitness and Physical Activity Across the Grades Document 4. K-8 Personal/Social Behaviors and Values Across the Grades Document • Companion Documents are available to assist with aligning current curriculum with the new state expectations. The Alignment Record documents are available for each grade level K-8 and for each of the activity categories in the MMC. These documents may be found at: www.michigan.gov/physed |
