Standard 3 Assessment and Rubric

Lesson Plan for Peer Teaching with Assessment

By Marci Barker and Trent Dykster

1. UEN Standard 3-Students will participate regularly in physical activity.

Objective 2 –Participate in activities that promote physical fitness.

a. Participate in activities that develop flexibility, muscular strength and endurance, and cardiovascular fitness.

2. The students will be put through a series of tests to provide them with information on their fitness levels. We will have them do the Pacer test for cardiovascular endurance, the Curl-up test for abdominal strength (muscular endurance), the 90 degree push up test for upper body strength (muscular strength), and the sit and reach test for flexibility. The students will write down the result of each test after they finish it. After the students have gone through all the tests, they then should have a good idea of what their fitness levels are according to the Healthy Fitness Zones listed on the charts we will provide. After writing down their results the students will write down some goals that if followed will help them to improve their fitness. A more in depth description of the activities can be found in the following book: FITNESSGRAM/ACTIVITYGRAM by Meredith/ Welk- The Cooper Institute Fourth Edition. Pages 28, 42, 47, and 53

3. For the assessment, students will turn in their score sheets and the teacher(s) will analyze the results using the FITNESSGRAM/ACTIVITYGRAM software. The teachers will also make sure the students wrote down goals to help improve their fitness levels. The teacher will then follow the rubric below to assess if the students have achieved the learning outcome above. Their goals need to be targeted at participating in activities that will promote physical fitness. If the students turn in a score sheet the teacher should be able to assess all of the following information in the rubric below based on what has been recorded on the record sheet. If the student does not turn in a score sheet they will receive a zero for the day and will have to make up these fitness tests on their own time. The papers will be returned to the students within a day so they can start to work on their goals.

4. As for a rubric, the students will be given a chart to analyze their results. The charts will come from the FITNESSGRAM/ACTIVITYGRAM book and will include the higher ends of the Healthy Fitness Zone and the lower ends of fitness. On their record sheets, they will write their test results compared to that on the charts. This way the students can see exactly where they are and write goals to improve according to the chart which labels the Healthy Fitness Zone and if they reached it or not. They will be given the following rubric so they know what is expected of them and how they will be graded for the fitness testing portion of their grade.
