Extract of sample "Health and Physical Education"

Overview The host learning area for this inquiry program is “Health and Physical Education.” The program integrates other learning areas such as English, Mathematics, Science, Arts, Society and Environment. The key theme of this program is human nutrition particularly in relation to balanced diet. The inquiry question that derives this program is; “What is a balanced diet?” Throughout this program, this inquiry question will be used to explore relevant and related concepts in different learning areas. This program is designed to effectively cater to diversities since it incorporates learning activities that are open-ended in nature. These activities can be modified to suit the specific learning needs of every student. Both formative and diagnostic assessment strategies will be used to assess the effectiveness of this inquiry model in relation to a set of curriculum outcomes developed for different learning areas.

Excursion This program will involve two excursion learning experiences that will take place outside the school compound. The first excursion will take place in a local vegetable plantation, whereas the second excursion will occur in a local animal habitat. The vegetable plantation is basically a medium size land, used to grow vegetable such as carrots, broccoli, cabbages, potatoes, peas and tomatoes among many other plants. On the other hand, the animal habitat comprises of domesticated animals such as chicken, cows, goats, Tuckey and a fish pound. These excursions will provide rich learning experiences to children since it will enable them to observe how plants and animals act as critical food sources. This excursion is relevant to this program since it provides hands-on experience that relates to the main inquiry question. By visiting a vegetable plantation and an animal habitat, students are bound to understand some of the sources of a balanced diet. Some of the policy requirements of the NSW Government that will be taken into account when planning and conducting these excursions include; Establishing the educational value of the excursion and taking into account the school’s resources, the needs of the program and the needs of the students Conducting a complete risk assessment before implementing the excursion Seeking approval or authorisation from parents or caregivers before embarking on the excursion Report suspected risks throughout all stages of the excursion. Clearly communicating safety rules to the individuals attending the excursion Ensure student’s are supervised by a well trained staff or educator Risk assessment processes that will be carried out prior to the excursion include; Identification and analysis of potential risks that may pose danger to the health, safety and the overall well-being of any individual attending the excursion Implement strategies that may help to avert potential risks for instance communicating safety rules, carrying basic first aid kit and ensuring maximum supervision of students NSW Government (2012 ).
