We’re offering a professional development opportunity so your teachers are confident utilizing the revised standards when building their curriculum and connecting their assessment strategies. More information can be found below.

Purpose

The purpose of the Curriculum and Assessment Guidance Document (CAGD2) for Physical Education 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 particpation in quality K-12 physical education programs. The revised document is broken into two separate guides: an elementary and secondary version. In addition, the CAGD unpacks the revised New York State Physical Eductaion Learning Standards (2020) and includes an amended adapted physical education services section. The CAGD contains curriculum tables for both elementary and secondary physical education. Each table includes the New York Physical Education Anchor Standard, Content Strand, and Grade Level Outcome aligned with suggested curricular focal points and disciplinary vocabulary. These curricular focal points can be used to develop local school curriculum in physical education as well as ensure vertical and horizontal arctiulation among grade levels. In addition, the curricular focal points are not intended to be exhaustive and it is recommended that physical educators continue to enhance curricular content in a manner that aligns with the new state standards framework (Anchor Standard, Content Strand, Grade Level Outcome).
