Trainer: Dr. Clancy Seymour (NYS AHPERD Past President & Canisius University)
The second edition of the Curriculum and Assessment Guidance Document (CAGD2) for Physical Education is a resource that connects the revised New York State Physical Education Learning Standards (2020) with guidance regarding curriculum and assessment recommendations for K-12 physical education practitioners and administrators in New York. The purpose of this document is to provide developmentally appropriate content and sample assessments in physical education that will allow students to acquire the skills, knowledge, confidence, and motivation through participation in quality K-12 physical education programs. The revised document is broken into two separate guides: an elementary and secondary version. In addition, the CAGD2 unpacks the revised New York State Physical Education Learning Standards (2020) and includes an amended adapted physical education services section.

Our instructor was great. This was the best professional development that I have had in the past 4 years at St. Thomas. Thank you!
The trainer treated us like professionals and was very gracious when responding to our questions and comments. I love to see professional respect. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Dr. Seymour for putting so much time and effort into this guidance document and revised standards. This is a great tool to use and grow are Physical Education programs!
Honestly, being "Re-inspired" about our profession. It is easy to get caught up in the doom and gloom of the day to day monotony, but it was nice to hear Dr. Clancy advocating so hard for what we do, and remind me why we do it.
As you continue planning for the academic year, please consider hosting a CAGD2 training. The feedback from many school districts has been overwhelmingly positive.
