PE 310 - Elementary Physical Education Methods

Students learn and put into practice the pedagogical competencies that deliver developmentally appropriate physical activities to children in grades pre-K through 8. Primary emphasis is given to best teaching practices and the implementation of curricula models that are based on developmental levels of students. Emphasis is given to development of lesson plans, unit plans, objectives, procedures, formats, evaluation, legal liability, and other pedagogical components. Students incorporate the skill-themes of rhythms and developmental games to teach their peers in a physical education setting.
