PTIS Junior School
Physical Education
“Working towards life long health”


What the PYP believes about PSPE*
•  PSPE in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) is concerned with
the individual’s well-being through the promotion and development of
concepts, knowledge, attitudes and skills that contribute to this well-
being. (first sentence)

•  “participation in an active, healthy lifestyle”
•  3 PSPE Strands: Identity, Interactions, Active living
•  6 PYP PE Strands: Health-related activities, Body control and spatial
awareness, Athletic activities, Games, Movement to music,
Adventure challenge

*PSPE = personal, social and physical education


Physical Education at PTIS

•  Our motto sums it up:
Working towards lifelong health

•  How this is done in JS PE:
•  Teambuilding, problem solving, pro-social activities
•  Exposure to MANY different activities (not just “the big sports”)
•  Development of transferrable skills (both physical and social)


How PE is changing (in the PYP)
Increased emphasis on: Decreased emphasis on:

learning that focuses on students skill acquisition, a game or a sport
constructing meaning, and as an end in itself
expanding and deepening their
knowledge of concepts and their
understanding of the world

PE teachers viewed as PYP PE teachers seen as solely single-
teachers subject teachers

skills learned, practiced and skills learned and practiced
applied in the context of inquiry isolation


How PE is changing (in the PYP)
Increased emphasis on: Decreased emphasis on:

rigorous activities directly linked to activities of superficial value;
the concepts and the driving activities that are included only
questions of the inquiry because they are fun

development of cooperative skills acquisition of physical skills

engaging students at their own level activities favoring skilled students

assessment/achievement based on assessment/achievement based on
learner profiles and attitudes skill level

•  Early Years 1/2/3 dances and creative movements linked to
“how we express ourselves”
•  Grade 1 create-your-own-game activities ties to
“how the world works”

The Chiang Mai Athletics Conference (CMAC)
is made up of seven international schools in Chiang Mai that have banded together to provide
competitive sports opportunities for our students in an organized, comprehensive manner. There are
about a dozen individual and team sports seasons that run at different times during the school year,
which often include regular-season inter-school competitions and always an end-of-the season CMAC
Tournament or Meet. These teams are “school teams” and are coached predominantly by teachers.


CMAC Sports Teams Coaches:
• All volunteers
• Total of 20 coaches involved with
teams (17 teachers, 3 parents)
• Recruited and organized each
April/May for the coming school
year, through personal
conversations and email
• Made up of mainly of returning
and new teachers
• About 33 different teams
organized each year


Sports teams are organized different ways


Why is there a perceived lack of
enthusiasm among sports teams?
Possible reasons:
• Significant demands of MYP and IB programs
• Family background and/or cultural views place less
emphasis on sports
• More and more time spent with online social networks
and online gaming
• Students find it difficult to balance social life with sports

Ultimately, there must be a three-way partnership between:
1. school / teachers / coaches
2. parents / home life
3. students’ personal responsibility


Communications


The philosophy of the program is to provide
opportunities for students do something they are
passionate about or to try new things through activities
that have links to classroom learning and several
curricular frameworks: the PYP, the MYP and CAS.
Activities are active, creative or academic in nature.

Every teacher (about 56 total) must do the equivalent of
one one-hour after-school activity every term. This is
monitored and tracked by the Activities Director.


• for Junior School, there are
usually about a dozen
activities per term
• approximately a balanced
mixture of active, academic
and artistic activities

• for Senior School, usually
about 32 activities per term
• a balanced mixture of service
learning, active, academic
and creative activities


As activities director, I constantly monitor student interests through
observation and a friendly “open-door” policy.

I survey teachers each term about activities they would like to offer,
sometimes based on feedback from students.

In the Senior School, 11th and 12th graders are encouraged to co-lead
activities with adult supervisors.

Ultimately, I try to bring together
the interests and passions of the
teachers with what we think the
students are most interested in.
