About Introduction to Physical Education and Physical Activity
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
The resources here cover the basics of physical education and why people take part in physical activity. The mind map Healthy Active Lifestyles sets out physical, mental and social benefits of exercise, including cardiovascular improvement and better muscle tone and posture. SPORTS and TYPES OF SPORTS sort activities into individual and team, indoor and outdoor, and local to international competition.
Where to start
Begin with the broad mind maps: The Concept Of Physical Activity, Physical Activity and Benefits of Physical Activity. They give you the vocabulary before you meet the detail. Then move to Why we teach PE in schools. and Leisure Provision for the wider picture.
Next, pick a narrower topic:
- Potential Injuries To The Muscular System covers tears, pulls and strains.
- Sports Participation Pyramid is a flashcard deck on the foundation, participation, performance and elite stages.
- PE GCSE: Physiology starts with levers, the fulcrum, effort and load.
Using flashcards, maps and quizzes together
Read a map first, then test yourself with a deck. The PE AQA GCSE REVISION FLASHCARDS ask about age, disability categories and body types. Physical Education MTEL covers open and closed skills, feedback and transfer. Finish with a quiz such as PE QUIZ or P.E Revision Quiz, and note which questions you missed. Go back to the matching map to fill the gap.
Most of the material is aimed at secondary students, and the listed resources mention GCSE PE and A-level Physical Education. Teachers can use the maps and decks as ready-made starting points for a lesson or revision session.
