PHILOSOPHY

Physical Education is the part of child’s overall education that is accomplished through movement. Although

Physical Education stresses the psychomotor domain, it also should contribute to the cognitive and affective

domains. Physical Education has three unique contributions to a child’s education: the development and

maintenance of a personalized level of physical fitness, the development and enhancement of movement

competency, and an understanding of movement and movement principles. A quality program will help to foster a

physically active lifestyle within the school community. It will also teach the students how to apply the valuable

movement concepts to all activities.

Here in Warren we utilize a wide array of techniques in order to properly educate our students. At the

kindergarten and first grade level we are using a skill-themed approach. This allows the students to build a solid

foundation of movement competence needed for success in future activities. Once they move to the second and

third grade level the skill-themed approach is expanded on by combining it with a sport-themed approach. By

doing so our students start to utilize their skills in a dynamic setting which will further allow the concept to be

understood. In the fourth and fifth grade students are taught using a sport-themed approach, including traditional

and non-traditional sports. As the student moves on to middle school they will experience an advanced level of the

previous sports/skills further allowing skill improvement. By exposing our students to this variety it will allow for

them to make an educated decision on future activities. These activities will help them to lead a healthy, active

lifestyle.
