Where to begin..
✤ With curricular topics that have enough richness and complexity to embrace the full range of children’s cultural, personal and familial background, experiences, abilities and previous knowledge
Authenticity
Inquiry-based learning must be relevant. Students should have the opportunity to undertake a question, problem or issue that makes sense for them, for the world they live in, and is central to the discipline.
What does it take to improve/refine motor skills? How much time? What kind of training? How much failure? How is this affected by your incoming skill set?

Communication and Classroom Culture
Students must have opportunities to support, challenge, and respond to ideas, discuss concepts within small and large group discussions and choose ways to express their understanding. Technology must be ubiquitous and used in a manner that demonstrates an appreciation of new ways of thinking and doing.
What characteristics define “athletic”? How do athletes decide which of these characteristics to prioritize? How do athletes develop these characteristics? How can we find out?

Active exploration
Task must allow for multiple/flexible possibilities for approaching the problem and require student autonomy, collaboration, problem solving, communications, decision making and management and the recruitment and incorporation of outside expertise.
What makes “fitness videos” inspiring/attractive/relevant/effective? How can we “personalize” the process?

What skills that make us successful in wrestling can transfer to longboarding? How is our competence and perspective affected as we change environments? What adjustments make us most successful?

Assessment
Students have opportunities to reflect on their learning using clear criteria that they helped to establish. Students use their reflections to set learning goals, establish next steps and develop effective learning strategies.
