Non-locomotor skills (i.e., bending, twisting, turning, balancing and stretching.	The student should be able to attempt each skill but are rarely or never able to demonstrate at school.	Demonstrate progress toward mature form of locomotor and non-locomotor skills. Students can perform 4 of the 8 locomotor skills.	Demonstrate progress toward mature movement patterns and sequences. The student usually demonstrates six of eight skills in a coordinated manner at school. - Demonstrates a smooth transition between locomotor skills in time with music.	Demonstrate the ability to adapt and adjust movement skills to uncomplicated, yet changing, environmental conditions, and expectations - traveling forward and sideways using different tempo’s. - Chase, flee, dodge, dodge individual or station obstacles.
STANDARD 2: Demonstrate manipulative skills. (i.e., dribble a ball, throw, catch, roll a variety of objects, kick, strike and jump rope).	The student should be able to Attempt each skill but are rarely or never able to demonstrate at school.	The student should sometimes demonstrate four of the eight skills at school.	The student should usually demonstrate six of eight skills in a coordinated manner at school.	The student always demonstrate a mature pattern of all eight skills consistently at school.
STANDARD 3: Physical Fitness Testing - Achieves and maintains a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.	Identifies one activity to improve each component of health-related fitness. Participates in self-assessment for health-related fitness.	Participates in self-assessment for health-related fitness and scores slightly below the National Standard Physical Fitness test for all five assessments for their appropriate age group.	Participates in self-assessment for health-related fitness and meets the standards for the 50^th percentile in the National Standard Physical Fitness testing for all five assessments for their appropriate age group.	Participates in self-assessment for health-related fitness and meets the standards for the 85 percentile in the National Standard Physical Fitness testing for all five assessments for their appropriate age group.

The student acknowledges that physical activity is good for personal well being	The student continues to participate in activities when not successful. - Try new movements and skills willingly.
STANDARD 6 Recognize the basic physiological indicators of physical activity (i.e., sweating, increased heart rate, elevated respiration).	The student should be able to recognize signs of exertion	The student will usually recognize signs of exertion and be able to find pulse rate.	The student will consistently recognize signs of exertion and be able to count a pulse rate for six seconds.	The student will always recognize signs of exertion, count pulse rate and give examples of activities that increase heart rate.
STANDARD 7 Identify the basic components of health-related fitness (i.e., to draw self-portraits, color muscles used for certain activities).	The student will rarely know where muscle and/or body parts are located for specific activities.	The student will attempt to identify the proper muscle and/or body part (2 out of 5 correct attempts).	The student will attempt to identify the proper muscle and/or body part (3 out 5 correct attempts).	The student will attempt to identify the proper muscle and/or body part (4 out of 5 correct attempts).
