Physical Education Curriculum: High School “Physical education is an integral part of the Catholic schools’ total education program in that
it develops the body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19).”
The Archdiocese of Cincinnati Curriculum Guide for Physical Education in high school
communicates the combined vision of teachers, coordinators, and administrators. The Grades 9-
12 curriculum seeks to develop students’ knowledge, skills, behaviors and dispositions to
demonstrate physical literacy and engage in a lifetime of physical activity. Physical literacy is
“the ability to move with competence and confidence in a wide variety of physical activities in
multiple environments that benefit the healthy development of the whole person.” The high
school curriculum includes two semesters to address the Ohio graduation requirement. Programs
are permitted to build from this document to provide additional semesters if needed.

The purpose of this curriculum guide is to provide teachers and administrators with
grade-band appropriate guidelines, outcomes, sequencing of activities and aligned
assessments in the elementary grades. The Ohio Physical Education Academic Content
Standards, benchmarks and grade level indicators provide the foundation for the
Archdiocese of Cincinnati Physical Education Curriculum. The curriculum is designed to
demonstrate each of the standards and benchmarks. The curriculum guide identifies the
standards, benchmarks and indicators. The guide also includes benchmark assessments
and suggested activity and unit content. Standards are overall curriculum goals that
identify the skills, knowledge and dispositions that students should demonstrate at the end
of the program. Benchmarks are learning outcomes that should be achieved at the end of a
grade band. Grade bands in Ohio are K-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12. Indicators are grade level outcomes
that contribute to the achievement of benchmarks.
The Ohio Physical Education Academic Content Standards, benchmarks and grade level
indicators provide the foundation for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati Physical Education
Curriculum. The curriculum is designed to demonstrate each of the standards and benchmarks.
The purpose of this curriculum guide is to provide teachers and administrators with grade-band
appropriate guidelines, sequencing of content and assessments in the high school grades. The
curriculum guide identifies the aligned Ohio Physical Education Standards and Benchmarks,
Benchmark Assessments and unit content. While it is the intent of the program to address each of
ARCHDIOCESE OF CINCINNATI – PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM

the indicators outlined in the Ohio Physical Education Academic Content Standards document,
the curriculum guide recognizes the contextual constraints such as time, class sizes, and
equipment and determined it is not realistic to address every indicator in the high school (9-12)
grade band at this time. If additional resources become available to physical education,
additional indicators can be addressed.
The physical education curriculum supports learning in other academic content areas by
integrating cross-curricular content material through physical education assessments and
activities. The physical education program also supports the Archdiocese of Cincinnati
Catechetical Program by integrating concepts and principles within the curriculum. The
Connections to Scripture document within the physical education curriculum provides a resource
for teachers to generate ideas to make specific connections in lessons.
Rationale for High School Physical Education
What is the goal of High School Physical Education?
The goal of High School Physical Education is for students to develop confidence,
knowledge and motor skill proficiency in specific physical activities of their choice that can be
used as part of a physically active lifestyle. Students in high school physical education will
further develop and apply fitness and physical activity concepts to develop clear and specific
plans for physical activity and fitness. Students also refine and apply personal and social
responsible behaviors in more complex and authentic situations. The focus is to create a
meaningful curriculum where students can apply their skills, knowledge and values to be
physically active. Teachers must create a learning environment where students feel empowered
to be physically active. The learning environment should be supportive, respectful of differences
and embrace the contributions of every student.
How does high school fit within the K-12 curriculum?
High school physical education builds upon the knowledge, skills and behaviors
previously developed in elementary and middle school physical education. High school physical
education is in a unique position as the final opportunity in the school environment to have a
positive influence on students’ fitness and physical activity. High school physical education is
designed to demonstrate each of the Ohio Physical Education Standards, and demonstrate these
behaviors in more advanced and authentic contexts. Standard 3 (Physical Activity & Health-
ARCHDIOCESE OF CINCINNATI – PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM
3
related Fitness) receive a greater emphasis in high school physical education. Students will apply
skills and knowledge to develop and implement personal physical activity and fitness plans. The
physical activity and fitness plans developed by each student in high school physical education is
intended to provide a foundation that can be used to participate in a healthy, physically active
lifestyle.
High School Standards and Assessments
The Archdiocese of Cincinnati Schools Physical Education 9-12 curriculum guide is
aligned with the Ohio Physical Education Academic Content Standards. The following five
standards and associated benchmarks are the driving force of this document and should be
evident in teacher’s planning and daily lessons. The grade band benchmarks and grade level
indicators have specific learning goals in mind, but allow teachers the flexibility to plan lessons
to best meet individual student needs, building space, and access to equipment. It is an
expectation that each student who successfully completes the curriculum will demonstrate each
of these standards to become physically literate.
Standard 1: Demonstrates competency in a variety of motor skills and movement patterns.
Standard 2: Applies knowledge of concepts, principles, strategies and tactics related to
movement and performance.
Standard 3: Demonstrates the knowledge and skills to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing
level of physical activity and fitness.
Standard 4: Exhibits responsible personal and social behavior that respects self and others.
Standard 5: Recognizes the value of physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self-
expression and/or social interaction.
Assessment Overview
The key outcome in an effective physical education curriculum is student learning.
Student learning is essential to develop physical educated students who will have the knowledge,
skills and attitudes to participate in a lifetime of physical activity. The Archdiocese of Cincinnati
Physical Education curriculum is focused on students demonstrating each of the Ohio Physical
Education Academic Content Standards and Benchmarks. The Ohio Benchmark Assessments
will provide the foundation for assessment of student learning in physical education. The high
school program will assess student learning in each of the 10 benchmarks. In addition to the
benchmark assessments, teachers will implement formative assessments within lessons and units
ARCHDIOCESE OF CINCINNATI – PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM

to provide students and teachers feedback about student progress towards achieving each
benchmark. Teachers should report benchmark assessment data to the appropriate school
representative each year and use the data to make instructional and curricular decisions. The
school-representative will then report the data to the Archdiocese. In Archdiocese of Cincinnati
the physical education teachers and curriculum advisors have determined the Benchmark
Assessment data will be collected during both semesters in the high school curriculum.
Grading
Student grades in physical education will be a direct result of the achievement of learning
outcomes. Final grades in physical education should reflect the achievement of each of the
standards and benchmarks. Grades giving within a grading period should reflect a student’s
progress towards the standards, but based on resources available such as time and equipment it
may not be appropriate to have a grade for each standard or benchmark within a grading period.
“Effort” and “Participation”grade - Behavior and/or participation is comprised of
behaviors that are aligned with aspects of Standard 4. Thus, participation, effort and/or behavior
can be included as a component of a students overall grade. Behavior and participation must be
assessed using valid and reliable assessment tools such as the Ohio Benchmark Assessment for
Standard 4. The Ohio Benchmark Assessment for Standard 4 (Benchmark A) in the category
self-direction defines various levels of performance associated with “participation/effort” or self-
direction. Other aspects of behavior such as safety (4A), cooperation (4B), respecting others (4B)
and resolving conflict/fair play (4B) are also described in the rubric. Teachers should
communicate their expectations for personal and social responsibility with their students.
Dress
Proper hygiene and safety is important and dressing appropriately is an expectation for
physical education. Dress can be recorded and used in the calculation of students final grade in
physical education. If the program deems it necessary to use dress as part of the students’ grade
then a rubric must be developed. Dress should not account for more than 10% of the final grade.
Dress is considered a behavior management issue and not a student learning issue, thus it is not
included in determining student grades. Physical Education is not what you wear, but what you
do. Expectations for dress and consequences for challenges associated with meeting this
ARCHDIOCESE OF CINCINNATI – PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM
5
expectation will be developed by the physical education teacher in accordance with school
policy.
Substitution Policy
The outcomes presented in this course of study show the importance of physical
education in the development of the total child and lifetime physical activity behaviors. There is
no substitute for quality physical education. While the activities identified in the Ohio Revised
Code (two seasons of athletics, marching band, ROTC and cheerleading) are excellent
extracurricular activities, their primary intention is NOT to develop physical activity behaviors in
our students. It is our hope that high schools within the Archdiocese will use credit flexibility as
the option to provide flexibility in students’ schedules.
Credit Flexibility
Credit flexibility requires students to demonstrate the outcomes of the course to earn the
course credit. The Ohio Physical Education Standards and specifically the Benchmarks are the
outcomes demonstrated by each high school student. Teachers should utilize the Ohio Physical
Education Evaluation for high school to guide students completing credit flexibility. Using these
assessments should help provide students structure and guidance while still allowing the student
the ability to choose a wide scope of activities to demonstrate the outcomes.
Description of Instruction
Each unit should last between 10 to 20 days to develop movement skill competency and
significant knowledge about the activity to be able to successfully engage in the activity
throughout their life. To stay current with national trends in physical education, different
instructional models should be used to deliver lessons to students. In addition to the direct
instructional model and the closely associated skills-based approach; teachers should use the
sport education model as well as the tactical approach model to deliver instruction to their
classes. The use of the tactical model (Teaching Games for Understanding) when teaching
invasion, net/wall, strike/fielding or target games will allow for the transfer of tactical decision-
making skills and strategies to transfer across different games within the category of games.
Adventure Education or Adventure Based Learning is an excellent tool to develop 4AB and the
sense of community within the class. Teachers are expected to employ best practices for
instruction and activities (see the National Association for Sport and Physical Education Position
Statements and Appropriate Instructional Practices Guidelines). Formative assessment of student
ARCHDIOCESE OF CINCINNATI – PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM
6
learning should occur over the course of a lesson or unit, opposed to waiting until the end of a
unit for final evaluation of skills and knowledge.
As with Grades K-8, it is an expectation that high school physical education will be a
developmentally appropriate environment. High school physical education must be a positive
experience where students learn if we are to meet our goal of lifetime physical activity.
Instruction should be student-centered with modifications and variations to learning task to meet
the needs of each student. Activities should be planned to maximize student learning and
moderate to vigorous activity levels. Small-sided games and authentic tasks should be utilized in
sports and games to develop competency. Developmentally appropriate activities should provide
meaningful engagement for all students. Practice tasks should allow all students to be
challenged, yet successful. Elimination games or developmentally inappropriate activities such
as dodgeball are not recommended and should not be played in high school physical education.

Catholic Identity
The Catholic Identify and the pillars of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati Catechetical
Program are integrated within our physical education curriculum. We see physical education as
an opportunity to implement and apply many of these outcomes. We see the greatest opportunity
with Standard 4 of the Physical Education outcomes. We have identified specific scripture that
aligns with key outcomes of Standard 4 of safety, self direction, cooperation, respecting others
and fair play. We provide these as suggestions and ideas to help teachers generate additional
opportunities to integrate scripture into their teaching.
Curriculum Maps
Each curriculum map identifies key content areas that align with each of the 10 benchmark
assessments and with the grade level indicators within the Ohio Physical Education Assessments.
Content can be covered in the sequence in which it is presented or can be expanded, rearranged
and/or revisited to meet the requirements of individual programs. It is also suggested that units of
instruction within the grade band will implement formative assessments to track progress and
inform instruction.

Grade 9-12: Physical Education Curriculum Map
Semester 1
9 – 12 Grade Band
Identified below are key content areas that align with each of the 10 benchmark assessments and
with the grade level indicators within the Ohio Physical Education Assessments. The suggested
number of lessons is based on 90 days per semester for 2 semesters at the high school level.
Content can be covered in the sequence in which it is presented or can be expanded, rearranged
and/or revisited to meet the requirements of individual programs.
With specific reference to the 9 – 12 grade band the following should also be considered:
While only two semesters of PE are required for graduation in Ohio, many high schools
do offer additional courses, often as electives, and many students take these courses over
and above the two required semesters..
Where additional elective courses are offered, the recommended content in the Content
Focus column of these tables can also be used as a guide for content to be taught in
specific elective courses. For example, a dance elective could comfortably be developed
to include greater depth of instruction in any or all of the six suggested dance forms in the
table below. Likewise, a net/wall games elective could be developed with more in depth
instruction in a range of the suggested games.
Content can be covered in the sequence in which it is presented or can be expanded,
rearranged and/or revisited to meet the requirements of individual programs as well as the
time of year PE 1 or PE 2 are being offered. It is suggested that in both PE 1 and PE 2 the
first two Content Foci listed for each is offered at the beginning of the semester.
