Last school year I was a substitute teacher for the Franklin Township Public Schools. The schools within the district were no more than 15-25 minutes from my home. The decision to sub for PE was a no brainer, since I have a sport management degree. “The curriculum is designed as an introduction and exploration of physical skills and concepts that promote healthy living and knowledge of lifetime activities” (Health and Physical Education, 2022). During the previous school year Covid-19 was still a major topic. I noticed at Franklin Township Highschool, they did not have PE the same as in other schools such as elementary and middle school. Franklin Township Highschool is a large school which is why the gymnasium would be divided between different classes. At the elementary and middle school levels, there was more of an emphasis on getting the students active. The vision of health and fitness classes at Franklin Township has four key steps (Health and Physical Education, 2022):
· The curriculum is designed as an introduction and exploration of physical skills and concepts that promote healthy living and knowledge of lifetime activities.
· Establish fitness goals, monitor progress and revise programs as needed.
· Increase muscular strength, aerobic capacity, flexibility, and self image.
· Develop a deep understanding of healthy nutritional habits.
From my time in the district, I believe that in elementary and middle school they are doing a great job of keeping the students active. The PE classes at Franklin are inclusive and creative, specifically at the Claremont Elementary school. There I shadowed one of the PE instructors during my period of orientation. I saw first hand how he engaged with the students, also how the activities that were presented made them want to participate. I believe in high school it should be required like the website states. It could be different during a post covid world, during my stint there I saw no activity by the students.
