Program planning with VELS

     Curriculum planning in Health and Physical Education
            needs to be part of total school planning.

     Questions to consider:
     Which faculties/classroom/specialist teachers have
      responsibility for student learning in domains such as
      Interpersonal Development, Personal Learning,
      Communication and Thinking Processes?

     Is the domain of Information Communications Technology
       being treated a separate subject or is it being integrated
       through all domains?

ACHPER
The standards and learning focus statements

    The standards are the basis for curriculum
                     planning
   - essential learning
   - assessment
   - reporting

 The learning focus statements suggest teaching
              and learning activities

ACHPER
Sequence of Learning

• Learning is continuous and connected.
• Sequence of learning builds on earlier work.
• The content and processes increase in
  complexity and challenge for students.
• Students should be able to make
  connections with earlier work.
Why link HPE to other domains?

  To educate students in a more holistic
  way by purposefully teaching the
  relationships and interactions between
  different domains and applying to real
  life situations.
Planning units of work - an option to consider
               Backwards curriculum design

1.   Decide on unit focus
2.   What knowledge, skills and behaviours do you want your students to be
     able to demonstrate at the end of this unit, subject or program?
3.   What elements of the standards will be addressed by this unit, subject
     or program?
4.   Decide on evidence of learning
5.   Plan assessment activities
6.   Plan teaching and learning activities
         enable students to progress towards the standards
         cater for a range of learning styles
         promote deep understanding of the concepts being taught
7.    Plan for effective feedback
8.    Plan to evaluate the unit

                                                           Students:

                                             Students effectively use strategic thinking
                                             and work with more and less skilled peers to
                                             improve game performance.

Interpersonal          Working in Teams      Students work effectively in different teams
Development                                  and take on a variety of roles to complete
                                             tasks of varying length and complexity.

                                             Students provide feedback to others and
                                             evaluate their own and the teams
