Health/Physical Ed Curriculum
Physical Education 10
The Fairfax County Public Schools Physical Education Program of Studies incorporates the Virginia Physical Education Standards of Learning, which identify concepts, processes, and skills for physical education in Kindergarten through Grade 10 for Virginia's public schools.
The intent of physical education is to help students learn the skills necessary for performing a variety of physical activities and understand the benefits of achieving and maintaining a physically active lifestyle. Students should acquire the knowledge, processes, and skills needed to engage in meaningful physical activity both in the present and for a lifetime. The process of participating regularly in a physically active lifestyle will lead to personal enjoyment, challenge, satisfaction, and a health-enhancing level of personal fitness. Students in Grade 10 are proficient in all fundamental movement skills and skill
combinations and are competent in self-selected physical activities that they are likely to participate in throughout life. They understand and apply key movement and fitness principles and concepts for all activities in which they demonstrate competence. Students are good leaders and good followers, respect others, and anticipate and avoid unsafe physical activity situations. They develop the ability to understand and anticipate how physical activity interests and abilities change across a lifetime. Students demonstrate competency in at least three lifelong physical activities and plan, implement, self-assess, and modify a personal fitness plan. Students are prepared to lead a physically active lifestyle.
