Physical Fitness Standards 6th-8th grade Standard: Physical Fitness

Grade Level Expectation: A physically educated person achieves and maintains a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.

Checks for Understanding: To achieve the following Checks for Understanding refer to the Student Performance Indicators Levels 1-3.

The student will:


 * 1) explore and participate in a variety of health-related fitness activities
 * 2) understand and apply basic principles of training (frequency, intensity, time and type) to develop personal goals and improve physical fitness
 * 3) participate in a personal fitness plan to enhance physical fitness (e.g. fitness logs, online journals)
 * 4) understand the relationship and long-term benefits of physical fitness to body systems
 * 5) demonstrate proper warm-up, conditioning and cooling down techniques
 * 6) participate in moderate to vigorous activity for a sustained period of time while maintaining a target heart rate
 * 7) demonstrate activities to improve and maintain muscular strength and endurance, flexibility, cardio-respiratory endurance and body composition
 * 8) evaluate and measure personal fitness levels (e.g. PRE, fitness testing, heart-rate monitoring)

Student Performance Indicators: Level 1 - Skills are introduced at this level.

At Level 1, the student will:

4.1.1 participate in moderate to vigorous physical activity in the physical education setting 4.1.2 define the F.I.T.T. principle 4.1.3 complete a teacher-guided fitness log 4.1.4 discuss the value of appropriate warm-up, conditioning and cool-down in physical activity 4.1.5 find pulse and calculate target heart rate 4.1.6 understand the components of physical fitness 4.1.7 complete a formal physical fitness test

Level 2 - Skills are developing; mastery and assessment at this level.

At Level 2, the student will:

4.2.1 participate in moderate to vigorous physical activity in a variety of settings 6 4.2.2 incorporate the F.I.T.T. principle into physical activity 4.2.3 maintain a personal fitness log 4.2.4 engage in and discuss the techniques of proper warm-up, conditioning and cool-down in physical activity 4.2.5 work in target heart rate zone for a sustained period of time 4.2.6 incorporate the components of fitness into a personal fitness plan 4.2.7 satisfy the minimum requirements for each component of a formal fitness test

Level 3 - Students are proficient at this level.

At Level 3, the student will:

4.3.1 explore a variety of new physical activities for personal interest in and out of the physical education setting (e.g. engages in out of school activities which enhance the quality of life as measured by health related and skill related fitness) 4.3.2 use the F.I.T.T. principle to improve personal fitness level 4.3.3 design an appropriate daily fitness plan to meet personal fitness goals 4.3.4 model the correct techniques for proper warm-up, conditioning and cool-down activities 4.3.5 work in target heart rate zone for a minimum of 20 minutes, three times per week 4.3.6 set personal goals for each fitness component to improve overall fitness 4.3.7 interpret the results of information generated by formal measures of physical fitness

Modification and extensions need to be made to meet the individual abilities of all students.
