Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, v37 n6 p3-10 2024
The SHAPE America National Physical Education Standards have long been the foundation for best practices in quality physical education. Following the 10-year cycle for revising the standards, a task force with diverse professional backgrounds convened to update the National Standards with special consideration for stakeholders who will be impacted by these changes--most notably, K-12 students. This article presents an overview of the new standards, outlining the changes and highlighting new features, including the move from five to four standards, the reconceptualization of physical literacy, and the shift to grade-span learning indicators with learning progressions. A unique feature of this overview is the inclusion of testimonials from practitioners explaining the new standards' benefits, effectiveness, and implementation, while emphasizing a holistic approach to physical education.
