- Focus Area 3: About movement
Through an integrated approach, students undertake, and learn through, a wide range of\ authentic physical activities and explore the specific movement concepts and strategies to promote improved performance. Within these practical units, students will incorporate knowledge from the theory modules that could include skill acquisition, biomechanics, energy systems, training principles/ methods and responses and nutrition.
Through physical activities, students explore movement concepts and strategies to promote
performance and participation outcomes.
- Through experiential learning, students develop capabilities and skills such as critical and creative thinking, communication and collaboration.
- Students develop make meaning of the cognitive and psychomotor processes fundamental to the learning of physical activities.
The following assessment types enable students to demonstrate their learning in Stage 1 Physical Education:
