Overview
Statement of Philosophy/Goals
Physical activity is critical to the development and maintenance of good health. The goal of physical
education is to develop physically educated individuals who have the knowledge, skills, and confidence to
enjoy a lifetime of healthful physical activity. It is our goal that our students will know the benefits of
their choice to be involved in physical activity and have a mindset that values physical activity and its
benefits in sustaining healthy lifestyles.
The New Jersey Department of Education combines standards for Health and Physical Education in its
development of standards. The South Brunswick School District recognizes this clear connection but
chooses to separate these content areas in order to emphasize the unique importance of each. This is why
The Physical Education Curriculum was prepared using the National Standards for Physical Education as
well as the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards.
Habits of Mind
The National Association for Sport and Physical Education’s (NASPE) definition of a physically
educated person includes 5 major focus areas:
To pursue a lifetime of healthful physical activity, a physically educated person:
! Has learned skills necessary to perform a variety of physical activities;
! Knows the implications of and the benefits from involvement in physical activities;
! Does participate regularly in physical activity;
! Is physically fit;
! Values physical activity and its contribution to a healthful lifestyle.
Program Delivery
Our Physical Education gymnasiums are effective standards-based environments that foster
understanding of physical fitness, skill development, competition and cooperation through a meaningful
content that provides:
! Instruction in a variety of motor skills that are designed to enhance the physical, mental, and
social/emotional development of every child.
! Fitness education and assessment to help children understand, improve, and/or maintain their
physical well-being.
! Development of cognitive concepts about motor skill and fitness.
! Opportunities to improve their emerging social and cooperative skills and gain a multicultural
perspective.
! Promotion of regular amounts of appropriate physical activity now and throughout life.
5
*Physical education is an integral part of the total education of every child from kindergarten through
grade 12. Quality physical education programs are needed to increase the physical competence, health-
related fitness, self-responsibility, and enjoyment of physical activity for all students so that they can be
physically active for a lifetime. Our physical education program aims to provide these benefits by
including the following:
! Skill development
Physical education develops motor skills that allow for safe, successful, and satisfying
participation in physical activities.
! Regular, healthful physical activity
Physical education provides a wide range of developmentally appropriate activities for all
children and youth. It encourages young people to choose to be physically active and aware of
the benefits of such a choice.
! Improved physical fitness
Quality physical education improves cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, flexibility,
muscular endurance, and body composition.
! Support for other subject areas
Physical education reinforces knowledge learned across the curriculum and serves as a laboratory
for application of content in science, math, and social studies.
! Self-discipline
Physical education facilitates development of responsibility for personal health, safety, and
fitness.
! Improved judgment
Quality physical education influences moral development. Students learn to assume leadership,
cooperate with others, and accept responsibility for their own behavior.
! Stress reduction
Physical activity becomes an outlet for releasing tension and anxiety and facilitates emotional
stability and resilience.
! Strengthened peer relations
Physical education is a major force in helping children and youth socialize with others
successfully and provides opportunities to learn positive social skills. Especially during late
childhood and adolescence, being able to participate in dances, games, and sports is an important
part of youth and peer cultures.
! Improved self-confidence and self-esteem
Physical education instills a stronger sense of self-worth in young people based on their mastery
of skills and concepts in physical activity. They become more confident, assertive, independent,
and self-controlled.
! Experiencing goal setting
Physical education gives children and youth the opportunity to set and strive for personal,
achievable goals.

National Standards for Physical Education
Physical activity is critical to the development and maintenance of good health. The goal of physical education is
to develop physically educated individuals who have the knowledge, skills, and confidence to enjoy a lifetime of
healthful physical activity.
A physically educated person:
Standard 1: Demonstrates competency in motor skills and movement patterns needed to
perform a variety of physical activities.
Standard 2: Demonstrates understanding of movement concepts, principles, strategies, and
tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities.
Standard 3: Participates regularly in physical activity.
Standard 4: Achieves and maintains a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 5: Exhibits responsible personal and social behavior that respects self and others in
physical activity settings.
Standard 6: Values physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, and/or
social interaction.
New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards
The New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards for Physical Education were revised in 2009. A
complete copy of the Core Curriculum Content Standards for Health and Physical Education may also be
found at: http://www.state.nj.us/education/aps/cccs/chpe/standards.htm
How to Read the Standards
Each of the standards from the NJ Core Curriculum Content can be “read” as follows:
STANDARD 2.5 (MOTOR SKILL DEVELOPMENT) ALL STUDENTS WILL UTILIZE SAFE,
EFFICIENT, AND EFFECTIVE MOVEMENT TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN A HEALTHY,
ACTIVE LIFESTYLE.
Descriptive Statement: This standard enables students to understand how to move and why it is
necessary. When individuals learn to move safely, effectively, and efficiently, and feel comfortable and
confident in the performance of motor skills, they are more likely to participate in health-enhancing forms
of physical activity throughout life. In order to meet this standard, students must participate in a wide
range of developmentally appropriate games, sports, dance, and lifetime recreational activities that will
help students develop and maintain a healthy, active lifestyle.
