A Level Physical Education Resource This resource coincides with the set of PowerPoints which, will assist the delivery of the A2 Exercise Physiology A Level Unit for the OCR specification. The student notebook contains: exam check lists; notes; tasks; exam questions and exam answers. The resource represents two years worth of work and I can guarantee that it will make teaching this unit much easier. I only wish that I had this when I first started teaching the Sports Science units. This is a perfect resource for anyone starting out teaching the Sports Science aspect of A Level Physical Education.

Learning Objectives: - Introduce the characteristics of skill. - Describe the skill continua and justify skill placement on each of the continua. - Understand how the transfer of learning impacts on skill development.

A Level Physical Education Skill Acquisition lesson. Learning Objectives: Identify the main factors that effected rational recreation in the second half of industrialisation. Be able to explain how the five influences affected rational recreation in the second half of industrialisation. Understand the changes between industrial and pre-industrial Britain.

This activity requires a table tennis ball and 18 plastic cups numbered 1-18 on the bottom. One side of cups 1-9 are the list of topics whilst the other half of cups set up on the opposite side of the table are types of revision activities. Split the group in two and then the each play beer pong until a topic and revision method is selected through the game. This game can be used for any topic or subject.

Learning Objectives Identify the inter-relationship between Sport England and their local partners through County Sports Partnerships. Research how the Yorkshire County Sports Partnership is working to increase participation in the local area. Identify the inter-relationship between Sport England’s national partners who increase participation for under-represented groups.

The assembly is centred around students finding a way to motivate them self and tapping into this to work hard in school. The first section of the video is a short funny video about a student who procrastinates for an entire day, making excuses to do silly tasks so that he does not have to revise. My starter here is that I believe that some of the students in my house are very similar when it comes to their won work or revision. I then define motivation and talk about some of the challenges that students will face shortly that will require motivation to succeed. Examples include their exams, finding a job, their driving test etc. The next section of the assembly is another short video that takes clips from movies with inspirational quotes. Threaded throughout this video are extracts from a motivational American speaker called Eric Thomas. He was once homeless but is now a multi millionaire. I have taken my faviourite quotes from this short video that I can relate too and I believe that the students will as well such as this: ‘I don’t do well in math, your right. You ain’t never studied. I’m not good at writing, because you have never written before. Most of you won’t be successful because when you’re studying and you get tired, you quit. (Eric Thomas - How Bad Do You Want It, 2013) I end the assembly by saying that I often listen to Eric Thomas because when I do it makes me feel inspired and motivates me. The task I then set my House is to think about what motivates them individually and use that the next time they feel like procrastinating for a day to avoid school work.

Learning objectives: - Calculate the body mass index (BMI) of each other. - Introduce the terms Basal Metabolic Rate and Basal Metabolic Rate.

The focus of this assembly is about perseverance. The first clip is taken from the film 'Catch me if you can'. It takes a scene where someone describes two mice falling into a bucket of milk. Once drowns but the other tries so hard to get out that it churns the milk into butter and walks out the bucket. The next clip is taken from 'Educating Yorkshire'. It shows a young man with a speech impediment trying to talk through some work and getting frustrated. The next clip is one of him speaking in the Year 11 leavers assembly. The next section shows Andy Murray getting upset after losing the Wimbledon final followed by the moment he won Wimbledon the following year. I then go on to talk about how in these situations both people went on to be successful by not giving up and persevering with the challenges ahead of them. This then links in to the challenges that the students will face this academic year. The assembly finishes with a quote by Gary Player who once said “It's funny but the more I practice, the luckier I get.”

Learning Objectives: Identify key influences for physical activity. Describe opportunities for physical activity. Explain the sports participation pyramid. Describe a number of key physical activity initiatives.
