The document discusses the teacher's approach to curriculum content and teaching style. It emphasizes guiding students to think critically and discover skills on their own. The teacher is committed to helping students achieve their potential through cooperation between the school, community, parents, and students. For discipline, the teacher believes in a three-strikes approach with fighting resulting in immediate dismissal. The goals of a physical education curriculum are also outlined, focusing on physical fitness, nutrition, enjoyment, and teamwork.

1. Curriculum Content:

2. The Teaching Style I subscribe To:
The Guided Discovery approach emphasizes the production of new talents. This approach invites the students to
think, to go beyond the given information and then discover the correct skills. As educators we promote access to
excellence and strive to inspire through education that emphasizes the power of discovery and the foundation of
critical and analytic thinking. We should foster creativity, and challenge the boundaries of knowledge by
cultivating independence of thought through unique opportunities of learning that allow our students to grow to
their fullest potential.
Statement of Motivation
In order to meet the needs of a diverse student population, I’m committed to assure a learning experience that
will assist my students to achieve their greatest potential; to adapt, and adjust to a diverse and ever changing
society. This will be accomplished through continued cooperation between school, community, parents, and
students. As a teacher I will foster a climate that is safe and supportive of individual students, enabling them to
become a successful adult through continued community involvement.
Student Discipline & Conflict resolution
I believe in the three strikes and you’re out rule as it applies to violations of the schools rules and
regulations, with the exception of fighting which will result in direct dismissal to the office. The first strike is a
verbal warning and an explanation by the teacher about the violation. The second strike will lead to a
detention. A third strike will lead to a formal office discipline form and a conference with the student’s
parents.

Example Observational Narrative
The overall philosophy of TrainUp is founded on one idea that is of major concern, childhood obesity. It was created by a local doctor in
Rockwall; Dr. Pfliegers’ idea was to incorporate technology into the realm of physical fitness that offered children an alternative to the
traditional form of exercise that is generally only sports related. As technology continues to expand the children of this generation continue to
advance technologically; and what better way to reach out to the children of this community by adding technology into their exercise program.
The TrainUp philosophy is a wonderful attempt to change the fate of childhood obesity by offering an alternate solution to the dilemma this
county is now facing. http://trainupteenfitness.com/TrainUp_Teen_Fitness_2010/Home.html

4. Example unit Planning
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
•Know the history of archery: Students will understand, analyze and interpret historical events,
conditions, trends and issues to develop historical perspective. History is a series of connected events,
shaped by cause and effect relationships, tying the past to the present. As early hunters and gatherers
developed new technologies, they settled into organized civilizations.
• Archery skills and techniques: Techniques (including practice and self-evaluation) are used to develop
skills related to performance in games and/or sports.
•Principals of motor skills refinement such as accuracy, technique and movement require a logical and
sequential approach.
•Character Development through Archery: Behaviors such as constructive communication, fulfilling
Commitments, and cooperation. Showing respect and responsibility to self and others.
•Physical, emotional and social benefits can be gained from regular participation in leisure/recreational
and/or competitive physical activities.
•Communication: Cooperation, rules and respect are important to the effective functioning of the group.

Why Assessment is Important
I value assessment because it is the crucial interface between the student and the teacher. The importance of utilizing
assessment as an effective tool determines whether or not the goals of education are being met. The students learn
what the qualities of good work is, and how to judge their work against a defined criteria. As a result, students work
to assess their own efforts, feelings of accomplishment, and how to set personal goals. These are qualities of self-
directed learners, not passive learners. As teachers we model, guide, and provide practice in self-
assessment, students learn that assessment is not something separate from learning or something done to them, but a
collaboration between teachers and students, and an integral part of how they learn and improve.
