BASIC CURRICULUM
 |
The
Basic curriculum educates students in fitness and
health concepts. These
concepts are taught through instructional units
that include; unit guidelines, student introductions,
vocabulary words, original activities and assessments.
Fitness measurements are used to establish base-line
fitness levels for all students. The practice of
goal setting directs students to set realistic
goals and work towards them. Functional equipment,
combined with fun games and interesting activities,
facilitate improvement in the five components of
fitness. As students move through the Basic Program
they are taught meaningful fitness concepts which
empower them to make healthier choices. The links
between activity, movement skills, fitness, nutrition,
health, and personal achievement are carefully
woven together to provide everyone with the opportunity
for success.

ADVANCED CURRICULUM

In the Advanced
Curriculum, fitness measurements and goal setting
are continued; personal behaviors are analyzed
through the use of diet, sleep, activity, and hydration
logs. Students observe how their nutrition and
daily habits affect their health, performance and
appearance. Training principles are introduced
so students can design a personal training program.
Periodic self evaluations enable students to observe
their progress. At the conclusion of this program,
students have the ability to evaluate their own
behaviors and design a plan of action to improve
or maintain their health and fitness.
