Volleyball Sport Education unit begins – grade 10’s

Rationale for the unit: Volleyball Sport Education Model

Sport Education is an instructional model developed for the enhancement of learning the concepts of how to play a sport and how to coordinate and manage the sport experience by assuming different roles on a team.

Sport Education gives students a chance to value fair play, respect the decision of teammates & officials and appreciate the spirit of competition.

Sport Education puts students in positions of responsibility and makes them aware that the success in their roles has a direct relationship to the success of their team/group (and of their own individual learning).

As such, we are going to use this Sport Education Model to help further our learning of (and demonstrating) leadership skills in the PE classroom.

Please see your grade 10 page on this blog for more information.

A few reminders for the start of the year

PE students, a reminder that during the first couple of weeks of school you will want to:

  1. Have appropriate PE Clothing/gym strip which you CHANGE into before class (t-shirt, shorts or sweat pants and running shoes). We encourage you to join the JO community and purchase a JO issued top (Cheques payable to John Oliver Secondary). Clothing is available through your individual PE teacher.
  2. Have a secure lock for the changing room to lock your belongings during PE class. This is a MUST as theft from the lockers can happen and has happened in the past. You may purchase a $9 lock from your PE teacher.
  3. Have downloaded a copy of the course outline and curriculum schedule for your own personal information. (Have a binder dedicated to PE). Outlines and curriculum are posted above (in the pages sections).

I am looking forward to getting to know the new students and starting those first few units with all of you!
