PE6.10
Apply controlled use of selected movement skills and variations (i.e., locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative skills) as well as safe and environmentally friendly behaviours while participating in a variety of:
  • alternate environment activities (e.g., skating, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, snowshoeing, roping, cycling, hiking, kayaking, aquatics, tobogganing, orienteering)
  • body management activities including dance and educational gymnastics, as well as others (e.g., pilates, wrestling, skipping, track and field, yoga, aerobics).
Indicators for this outcome
(a)

Demonstrate progression in skills development of self-selected and teacher-selected skills required for participation in alternate environment activities (e.g., cross-over skating, compass reading, GPS reading, snow ploughing in downhill skiing).

(b)

Incorporate a pre-assessment, plan for growth, principle of practice, and post-assessment method for the improvement of at least one skill.

(c)

Determine how environmental conditions can influence safety while exercising outdoors (e.g., effects of ultraviolet rays, wind chill, heat).

(d)

Willingly apply responsible safety precautions such as wearing a hat and applying sunscreen before participating in outdoor movement activities.

(e)

Describe and use environmentally friendly behaviours that need to be practised when participating in movement activities in outdoor environments (e.g., respect trees by leaving branches intact, use appropriate containers for garbage).

(f)

Create and implement a class plan for an outdoor activity that engages class members in supporting or enhancing the natural environment (e.g., plant trees, clean up the school yard).

(g)

Create and perform a sequence of movement skills consisting of self-chosen movements that meet the criteria which include the movement over, off, and with equipment and objects (e.g., while manipulating an object such as a ball, spring onto a crate, jump off while rotating, land on feet, balance asymmetrically, run and spring, land on hands, and rotate forward).

(h)

Create and perform, in small groups, cooperative group rhythmical sequences and dances that incorporate objects such as basketballs, hoops, and skipping ropes, and is accompanied by an auditory rhythm such as music or a drum beat.

(i)

Dance the basic steps, in combinations or in entirety, of current popular dances (e.g., hip hop, break dance).

(j)

Demonstrate progression in skills development of self-selected and teacher-selected skills required for participation in body management activities (e.g., slip and slide move for hip-hop dancing, front crawl in swimming, cartwheel in educational gymnastics, shot put in track and field).

(k)

Demonstrate proper footwork, body positioning, timing, and smooth transitions while participating in forms of dance that originated with our Atlantic neighbours (e.g., tap, clogging, waltz, polka, schottische).
