The Tennessee Physical Education Standards document is divided into three (3) documents one for each of the following grade bands: Grades K-5, Grades 6-8, and Grades 9-12. Each set of standards were written by teams of Tennessee physical education teachers and higher education faculty as convened by the Tennessee Department of Education. The Physical Education Standards represent the skill, knowledge, or behavior outcome of the student at the completion of a grade. Creating developmentally appropriate learning experiences that meet the standard is the responsibility of the physical education teacher and in alignment with school district documents. Each standard is observable and measurable and therefore can be assessed. To effectively use the document, the following are key definitions or descriptions in reference to the format.

Component: a grouping of similar skills, knowledge, or behaviors. Each document has five (5) components specific to the grade level.

Subcomponent: a more refined grouping of similar skills, knowledge, or behaviors within a component. Each subcomponent is identified by a title.

Standard: a described skill, knowledge, or behavior as listed within subcomponent and grade level. Component Extension: an idea to further challenge students in a particular subcomponent and found only in the Grades 9-12 document.

▪ What will we be learning in Physical Education class?

The Tennessee Physical Education Standards Grades 9-12 document is divided into five components: Motor Skills (MS); Cognitive Components (CC); Fitness and Physical Activity (FPA); Personal and Social Responsibility (PSR); and Values Physical Activity (VPA).

● The Tennessee Physical Education Standards Grades 9-12 state skills, knowledge and behaviors students should demonstrate end of the high school physical education experience. The STANDARD is now what was previously called an outcome or student performance indicator.

● Each component is divided into subcomponents as a means to organize similar standards, e.g., Cognitive Components has 4 subcomponents:

● Movement Concepts & Principles, Skill Analysis, Game Rules, and Tactics and Strategies.

● The standards need not be taught in the order presented. The component and subcomponent numbers are only for organization and identification.

● The standard is the action, knowledge or behavior expected, e.g., FPA 8. Calculate and apply resting, maximum, and target heart rate during various activities.

● Unique to the Grades 9-12 Standards is "Component Extension". The component extensions are ideas to further challenge students in a particular subcomponent and are optional teaching ideas.
