My Teaching Philosophy Of Teaching For Physical Education

I personally believe that Physical Education is a beneficial part of our knowledge and well-being. If accepted into the Physical Education Leadership Program, my motive is for other students and incoming freshman to see P.E. class as a place of growth and improvement, and also a place where you can enjoy and meet new people. During my 1 ½ years of being a student here at MCHS, I have met many people and have made many friends through P.E. class. If I become a P.E. leader, I will encourage and help students to do their best and to have confidence in what they do in and even out of P.E. class. Like many others, I am a shy person. If accepted into the program, I feel it would help me break out

The Margaret Eaton School (MES) played an important role in Canadian physical education during a period of time known as the “golden age” for women’s sport in Canada. This essay will discuss how Margaret Eaton School came to be and why it is considered one of the leading schools in the development of women’s physical education in Canada in 1901, with the help of Emma Scott Raff and Margaret Eaton. The school started out as “The School of Expression” focusing on theatre and physical culture, and later (1925) shifted its views to focus solely on physical education. I plan to argue that from 1901 to 1942, the Margaret Eaton School played an innovative role in Canada in the development of physical education by offering women a comprehensive

My learning from EDX1450 will influence how I teach HPE by taking a strengths-based approach, addressing the diverse needs of students in health and movement strands, and that health promotion is for all teachers. Through using a strength-based approach, students will recognise that every person has a variety of skills and life experiences to recall in regard to their health and wellbeing (ACARA, 2015e). By focusing on a student’s strengths and abilities it promotes and maximises health and well-being for all students and the wider community. I will modify physical activities with the understanding that students are at varying developmental stages (Callcott et al., 2015). This will ensure that my students have success while also being challenged

As a Physical Education teacher of Year 9 and 10 students, it is important to take steps to achieve prolonged participation in sport. The experience that a student has in HPE is likely to determine whether that student continues to participate in sport both at school and once they graduate (Penney, 2006). Wahl-Alexander (2011) found that students’ strongest memories from physical education were from authentic and rich sport experiences resulting from Sport Education (Siedentop & Tannehill, 2006). Sport Education aims to ensure the unit is delivered in a way that mimics an actual sport season, which has many

From a very young age, I have loved being involved in sport and fitness. My earliest memories all involve me running around with a ball or a bat of some kind either in my hand or at my feet. My love for physical activity has remained and since then, I have becoming increasingly interested in coaching and the more theoretical side of sport. This has inspired me to pursue a career in physical education and coaching.

The mission of high quality elementary education is to help children develop and mature into successful and highly functioning learners by teaching the basics of education, healthy learning habits, and skills needed for everyday life; including social, mental, and physical knowledge. School should help students in all aspects of their lives. The mission along with being for the whole classroom, is for each individual and should adapt to their needs and learning level they are at. I used to be a math tutor, and each individual was at a different level with the material and comprehension. Each person has their own speed for learning and understanding. Also, not only do students need to be taught academic skills and knowledge, they also need to

The key aims of PE on the national curriculum focusses on a healthy lifestyle developing competence across several physical activity areas and for children to be active for sustained periods of time and encouraging children to engage in competitive activities and sports (Smith 2014. P213).

When I first started attending Manlius Pebble Hill, I didn't think that athletics would develop into a large part of my life. During my sophomore year I was granted the opportunity to take part in one of the greatest learning experiences in my life. The school had just hired a new basketball coach, and he came with the intentions to change our view on athletics at MPH. In the preceding years we had a record of about three wins, out of sixty games, and had somewhat given up hope on the notion of ever winning. However, when Coach Ike came he implemented lessons that would help nurture our love of basketball, and help us to become a successful team. He taught us how to ply together, and how to put the team and school we play for ahead of ourselves.

Physical education should be a fun class, but fun does not have to mean chaos. I believe in a structure that will allow the students to have fun in a safe way. My lesson plans will be structured so that students are constantly engaged in physical activity. I feel that if I can keep students moving and learning, then the chances of misbehavior will decrease. In elementary school I feel that Instant Activities should be used to get students moving when they get into my class. High school is a little different. I feel that students at the secondary school level should be introduced physical fitness activities that will help keep them in shape later on in life.

Ever sense I was a young girl I’ve been really into physical activities. At the age of five I started skating and instantly fell in-love. At the age of six my dad enrolled me into hockey, and from that point on my life has never been the same. I’ve had numerous opportunities in sports such as: winning gold and silver for U18 Team Canada hockey, and getting a scholarship to Wisconsin University to play on the women’s hockey team. Although these moments are surreal, it is not only the moments that I remember but the mentors and teachers that I have been fortunate to meet along the way. These coaches have not only taught me the game but have also taught me life values such as: teamwork, leadership, discipline, time management and much more. Without hockey, and sports in general I don’t know where I would be today, but I do know one thing and that is without sports I wouldn’t have met all the amazing people that helped guided me towards wanting to become a physical education teacher. Sports have always been a huge part of my life, and I am blessed to have sports guide me through life. Thus, I want to become a teacher to help kids have the same opportunities that I had growing up.

It is really important to me to have strong core for what I believe about teaching physical education and health. I believe that the most important things is that the students is physically active and I also believe that the students should have at least one thing or activity that they interested in that they can do for the rest of their lives in order to ensure that love to be physically active has become part of their lifestyle. Therefore, I would like to have a variety of physical activities, sports and fitness method in my curriculum and I would like my students to develop their skills and increase their knowledge of different skills and activities because it can provide a fun and enjoyable of physical activity, as well as build psychomotor and cognitive. I will try to safely provide the students the enjoyment of physical activity, become more confident with their abilities, increase their knowledge of health related fitness, and help them to find things that they love to do to continuous to be physically active. My philosophy of teaching physical education and health is including content knowledge of what I want to

Teaching is one of the most important careers that help advance a society. Teachers are important because they are responsible for passing along knowledge from generation to generation. Early Americans made education one of the most important aspects of society when this nation was founded. Formal education has been around thousands of years, but the modern education system in place now originated in the early 20th century. The progressive era in education took place from the 1890s to the 1930s. This era brought about dramatic expansions in the number of schools in the U.S. By 1940, nearly half of young adults were earning a high school diploma (Costrel). One specific type of teacher in a physical education teacher. A physical education teacher holds a big responsibility within the school. They are in charge of keeping the students healthy. P.E. teachers have to have exercise and fun blended into one class. A physical education teacher is a strong career choice because of the pay and benefits, the teamwork aspect, and the sense of self-satisfaction one gets from the career.

I interviewed Larry Becker, one of my high school football coaches and also PE teacher, to see what he thought were the major concerns and dilemmas facing Physical Education. I talked to him about going into Physical Education as my major because I want to be a coach. He said probably the biggest misconception is that people go into Physical Education to be a coach or just a PE teacher and they do not really realize that not too
