BTEC Sport Components of Physical Fitness Lesson

This resource consists of a power point, all required work sheets, information sheets and a mark scheme for progress questions (teacher notes are also included in the notes section of the power point slides). The topic is components of physical fitness (flexibility, speed, body composition, aerobic endurance, muscular endurance and muscular strength). The resource is built for Pearson BTEC Sport Unit 1.

The lesson includes both interactive areas and teacher led areas. I have used this with Year 9 & 10 classes and have found it to be a very successful and engaging lesson.

The learning objectives for the lesson are as follows:

Lesson 1

• We can name the components of physical fitness (Level 1 pass).
• We can define the 6 components of physical fitness (Level 2 pass).
• We can apply the components of physical fitness to sports performers (Level 2 Merit).

On each slide the objective being worked on at that time is highlighted to ensure pupils are conscious of their progress at all times.
