Physical Education Program Checklist - SHAPE America
Guidance DocumentPhysical Education Program ChecklistThis Physical Education Program Checklist is designed to help school administrators, principals, teachers andparents review their schools’ physical education programs to ensure that they are addressing what SHAPE Americahas identified as the “essential components” of physical education (SHAPE America, 2015).In The Essential Components of Physical Education, SHAPE America outlines the policies and practicesthat should be in place in school-based physical education programs. The guidance document defines the fouressential components of physical education as policy and environment, curriculum, appropriate instruction, andstudent assessment.Use the checklist that begins on p. 3 of this document to identify which policies and practices from the EssentialComponents are in place in your school district or school, and then use those results to improve the physicaleducation program.For a comprehensive review of the overall school health environment, the Centers for Disease Control andPrevention provides the School Health Index (SHI): Self-Assessment & Planning Guide 2014, an online selfassessment and planning tool that schools can use to improve their health and safety policies and programs.Module 3 of SHI addresses physical education and other school-based physical activity programs, and containssome items that are also included in this Physical Education Program Checklist. The checklist enables schoolleaders to look closely at physical education program elements. Items included in both tools are identified withan asterisk (*) in the first column.Before examining your physical education program using the Physical Education Program Checklist, we suggest thatyou gather and read the documents below to prepare for conducting your analysis: National Standards for K-12 Physical Education State physical education standards State physical education policy The Essential Components of Physical Education 2015, SHAPE America – Society of Health and Physical Educators www.shapeamerica.org1900 Association Drive, Reston, VA 20191 703.476.3400 Fax 703.476.9527 info@shapeamerica.org
