Q

Manipulative skills

A

Participant handles play objects like bats, balls, wands and hoops. Activities increase eye/hand, eye/foot and hand/foot coordination. They also increase tracking skills and dexterity and propulsion skills.

Q

Classifying movement patterns

A

Unstructured movement - exploring involving response, experimentation, exploration, and balance. (Example - scavenger hunt). May be PE & science at the same time.

Structured movement - involves a specific skill that can be quantified. (Relay race). Keep score, etc.

Q

Perceptual-motor Competencies.

A

General coordination - ability to move in rhythm with muscular control.
Balance - control of the center of gravity.
Static balance - stationary balance (ex. riding a bike).
Rotational balance - movement in circular motion (ex. Pivoting in basketball).

15
Q

Rhythmic activities

A

Basic movement using the medium of rhythm and often includes locomotor, no locomotor, and manipulative skill. (Ex. Jump rope for Hearts to music).

Integral component of a comprehensive physical education program - 40% of K activities can be rhythmic.

16
Q

Principle of Learning

A

Readiness - ability to learn and understand movement patterns which is influenced by coordination, maturation, physique, and experiences.
Motivation - influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic rewards.
Form and Technique - Sound mechanical principles in learning a skill.

17
Q

Throwing

A

Arm swings back
Elbow moves forward
Trunk rotates toward the throwing side of the body
Weight shift during follow through

**evaluate student readiness: eye/hand coordination, stance, arm movement.

18
Q

Catching

A
  • -Eye follows the ball or object
  • Elimination of avoidance (fear)
  • -Arm bends at the elbow
  • Relaxed
  • -Object is brought toward the body (absorb force)
  • Non-rigid catching style - hands brought together the catch is made.
19
Q

Fitness: Exercise and Health

A

Conditioning - an exercise program to counteract heart disease and other circulatory problems.

Factors include diet and regular exercise.

Poor physical conditioning contributes to coronary heart disease (40% of all deaths and blood circulatory problems).

20
Q

Fitness tests measure:

A
Body conformation
Body balance
Agility
Muscular power
Endurance
Flexibility
Strength
21
Q

FITT - Prescription for Aerobic Exercise

A

F - Frequency: How often? 3 x’s per week w/no more than 2 days off.

I - Intensity: How hard?

T - Time: How long? 20 minutes

T - Type: What activity?

22
Q

Fitnessgram Assessment

A

Aerobic capacity - 1 mile run/walk

Body Composition - Percent of fat (20% mildly obese; 40% moderately obese; 100% severely obese)

Muscle fitness - curl ups, push ups.
Students must meet certain standard=criterion.

23
Q

Nutrition

A

Daily caloric requirements depend on age, size and activity (older folks need fewer calories)

Maintenance Diet vs. Reducing Diet

24
Q

Proteins, Carbohydrates, and Fats

A

Proteins include essential amino acids.
Sources of protein include meat, dairy products, fish, nuts, whole grains, and beans - 20% of diet.

Carbohydrates - sources include bread, cereal, rice, potatoes, and beets - 55%-60% of your daily diet.

25
Q

Fats

A

Saturated fats - solid at room temperature.
Unsaturated fats - sources are oils and some foods (nuts, avocados).
Cholesterol - natural fatty substance only found in animals, made in the liver. Excess=200 and up. Blood fat levels indicate the amount of cholesterol in the body.
LDL - low density lipoproteins BAD(Lousy)
HDL - high density lipoproteins GOOD(Happy)

26
Q

Vitamins and Minerals

A

Fat soluble - A, D, E and K; can be dangerous if too much is ingested.

Water soluble - other vitamins

27
Q

Blood pressure

A

Force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries.

Arteries are muscular blood vessels that carry blood AWAY from the heart. All arteries, except pulmonary and umbilical arteries, carry oxygenated blood.
Veins carry blood to the heart.

28
Q

Blood pressure continued.

A

Resting Blood Pressure - Normal diastolic is under 85 and systolic under 140

Resting Heart Rate - 40 to 90 beats per minute (regular exercise lowers the heart rate)

29
Q

Breathing and Lungs

A

Aerobics - oxygen based exercise (running, walking, swimming). Good for the heart.

Anaerobic - exercise for short amounts of time at high power levels (football, baseball, sprinting). Not particularly good for the heart.

30
Q

Body Composition

A

Skinfold Measurements are chest, abdomen, thigh and triceps

Percentage of body fat: Lean < 8% in makes and <13% in females; Fat > 21-24% in males and >26-32% in females.

31
Q

Sports and Games

A

Traditional and Non-traditional

Which are these? 
Volleyball
Lacrosse
Badminton
Baseball
32
Q

Sports and Games cont.

A

Individual or Dual sports in the U.S.

Track, swimming, tennis, golf, skiing, fencing, gymnastics, dance, etc.

33
Q

Adaptive PE.

A

Public law 94-142 (1975)

Now codified in IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) 2004

Special Education and Section 504 Plans.

IEPs follow students state to state.

34
Q

Section 504

A

Diagnosed medical condition which requires an accommodation. Blindness, Deaf or hearing-impaired are Spec. Ed.

35
Q

Kinesiology

A

The science of human movement. It focuses on how the body functions and moves.

Biomechanics - is mechanical kinesiology and is concerned with the human body as a mechanical system (joints and muscles cause movement of the skeletal structure of the body).

36
Q

First Aid treatment

A

Sprains

37
Q

Benefits of Elementary Physical Education

A
Health
Expend energy
Enhance self-esteem
Social interaction
Leadership
Sportsmanship
Motivation for life-long physical activities
Self-confidence
Better-concentration
