Year 11 Physical Education (PED)

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

• Basic anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and motor skill learning.
• The qualities of movement in an applied setting and the strategies to improve control.
• To participate in a variety of physical activities.
• Strategies to promote Kotahitanga (Interpersonal skills) in a variety of movement contexts.
• To develop an understanding of the influences on movement.

OUTCOMES  OF THIS SUBJECT:

Physical Education develops the social, emotional, intellectual, and cultural capabilities of ākonga. These capabilities inform the ways in which ākonga understand tikanga in movement contexts; provide diverse ways of participating in physical activities; and contribute to movement's wider benefits to Hauora.

Physical Education invites ākonga to engage with how movement affects them, those around them, and their wider communities. Ākonga recognise and understand the challenges which affect participation in movement, and respond to any movement barriers with full and active participation. Through their learning journey in Physical Education, ākonga will develop and refine their understanding of what it means to be physically educated and promote physical education throughout their lives.
