🦊 "Fantastic Mr. Fox" is one of my all-time favourite movies.

πŸ’‘ It also helped me realize how I could be a more effective #physed teacher.

For those of you who live on the other side of the river, here is the scene from the movie:

πŸ’― Formative assessment increases the amount of learning that happens in your lessons & shrinks the gap between low- and high-achieving students

πŸ§‘β€πŸ³ But how can we bake it into our teaching?

πŸ‘‡ A thread that walks you through how I structure my #physed lessons to achieve this. Image
πŸ“— Let's start off with a quick definition:

πŸ’― Formative assessment refers to "frequent and ongoing ways to check students’ progress towards mastery."

πŸ“£ H/T @rickwormeli2 Image
⚾️ The lesson I'm about to walk you through is from my Striking & Fielding Games unit. I run this unit as part of my G6 #physed curriculum.

🎯 The unit is built around the following @SHAPE_America grade-level outcomes.

βœ… A lot has been said about the power of #physed when trying to help students develop a sense of responsibility.

πŸ‘‰ But how do we intentionally go about this?

🧡 Here's a THREAD on the key teaching strategies of the Teaching Personal & Social Responsibility (TPSR) model! πŸ‘‡
πŸ‘€ First off, an overview of TPSR.

🎯 The purpose of TPSR is to help young people learn to take control of their own well-being and development, to be efficient in their social environment and to learn how to be sensitive and responsive to the wellbeing of others.
πŸ“ˆ The model is based on five levels of responsibility:

πŸ‘ Respect for others.
πŸ’ͺ Effort
🧭 Self-direction
🀝 Caring for others.
πŸš€ Transfer

🎯 The goal is to help students develop competence in levels 1-4 and then apply what they've learned outside of #physed.
