Grade 8 – Intermediate Activities
Welcome to 8th Grade Physical Education at Early Light Academy. Intermediate Activities offers a wide range of developmentally appropriate activities that are increasingly complex in content, concept, skill development and execution. Students continue to practice skills in modified form but begin to participate in regulation games with more complex playing environments than those experienced in Beginning Activities (7th grade). Teams are kept small, allowing maximum participation and involvement by all students. Cooperative as well as traditional sports activities are included in the curriculum.
Yikes that last sentence has a lot of information. 8th grade PE is not complicated but it is important to understand that Intermediate Activities continues social and cognitive development with reading and writing experiences introduced to broaden the physical education experience. The curriculum continues to offer a scope and sequence of activities to challenge students of all abilities and skill levels. The instruction closely articulates with the 7th grade content, but is not repetitive in activity selection.
On the right side of the screen is a link to the syllabus for 8th grade PE as well as a link to the "Activity Page" which is your guide to HOMEWORK, PROJECTS, HEALTH JOURNAL as well as any required READING for 8th grade PE.
8th Grade PE Curriculum is based off Core Curriculum developed by Utah State Board of Education and can be found at www.schools.utah.gov
I look forward to seeing you in class!
