    Vocabulary for Physical Education

    Aerobic Activity: Light to vigorous intensity physical activity that requires more oxygen than sedentary behavior and thus promotes cardiovascular endurance and other health benefits (eg jumping rope, biking, swimming, running, playing soccer, basketball, or volleyball) Anaerobic Activity: Intense physical activity that is short in duration and requires a breakdown of energy sources in the absence of oxygen Energy sources are replenished as an individual recovers from the activity Anaerobic activity (eg sprinting during running, swimming, or biking) requires maximal performances during a brief period of time Assessment: Process that enables teachers to evaluate a students performance, knowledge, and/or behaviors Competency: Sufficient ability to enjoy safe participation in an activity; the ability to perform and apply skills Complex Motor Skills: Skills that require two or more locomotor and/or manipulative skills Developmentally Appropriate: Those aspects of teaching and learning that change with the age, experience, and ability of the learner Developmentally Mature Pattern: Movement characterized by mechanically efficient, coordinated, and controlled performances; movement that can be performed with ease, using the critical elements of a skill (eg step with the opposite foot when throwing) Disposition: A behavior, attitude, or value Domains of Learning Psychomotor: Behavior involved the process of change and stabilization in physical structure and neuromuscular function; the performance component Cognitive: Behavior involved the relationship between mind and body; the knowledge component Affective: Behavior involved feelings and emotions as applied to self and others through movement; the feelings component

    Fundamentals Movement Skills Locomotor: Movements that take a person from place to place (eg walk, run, hop, jump, leap, gallop, skip, slide) Non-locomotor: Movements performed around the axis of the body (eg bend, stretch, twist, turn, push, pull, raise, lower, shake)

    Manipulative: Movements where a person controls an object with hands or feet (eg toss, catch, throw, kick, strike)

    Modifiable health related risk factors (as defined by the American Medical Association): Smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, inactivity

    Movement concepts (used to help students modify motor skills or movement sequences) Body awareness: Awareness and understanding of what the body does while moving Space: Awareness and understanding of wher the body moves (general or personal/self space) Direction: The path of movement (forward, back, side to side, up, down, straight, curvy, Zig zag) Level: The height at which a movement is performed (high, medium, low) Range: The relative location of ones body (self-space, general space) and how various extensions of the body (wide/narrow, far/near, long/short, large/small) are used in movement Effort: Awareness and understanding of how the body moves; Force: The degree of muscular tension required to move the body or its parts from place to place or to maintain equilibrium (heavy, light or somewhere in between) Flow: The continuity or coordination of movements (smooth or jerky, free or restricted) whether movement is free or bound with varying degrees Time: The speed at which movement takes place (fast, slow, sudden, gradual, erratic, sustained)

    Relationships: How and where the body moves in harmony with objects or other people Physical Activity: Bodily movement that is produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle and substantially increases energy expenditure (US Dept of Health and Human Services, 1996) Physical activity is used as an umbrella term that has multiple dimensions or sub-categories of physical activity Physical Activity
