Standards

During Friday’s class, we reviewed the Senior Level Regent Report card for PE. 6/3 This ratio is the hopefully standard that will soon be require for NYS students to graduate. The 6 represents capabilities in 6 different activity categories while the 3 represents proficiency in three of those categories. In order for PE to be regarded as a needed and serious program in schools PE teachers, need to establish a higher outcome criterion. We also discussed the importance of creating appropriate assessments for PE lesson. Up to this point, we mostly use verbal checks. But that’s not enough. There needs to be quantifiable, concrete assessments to be able to establish and prove the creditable of PE programs.
