Equipment: N/A
Equipment provided by me: N/A
Facility: Home
OBJECTIVES (2-3 per domain):
Psychomotor:
1. Students will be able to perform various dynamic and static stretches to
work on flexibility.
2. Students will be able correctly demonstrate the Beighton Test.

Cognitive:

motion in different joints and how to improve their flexibility.
2. Students will learn the proper technique for flexibility stretches that are
essential to improve mobility.

Affective:
1. Students will value the knowledge and benefits of flexibility and full range
of motion to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
2. Students will learn how to contribute to a safe learning environment at
home.

TEKS:

(3)  Physical activity and health. The student exhibits a health enhancing,

physically active lifestyle that provides opportunities for enjoyment and challenge.
The student is expected to:
(F)  maintain healthy levels of flexibility;
(H)  evaluate personal fitness goals and make appropriate changes for
improvement;

STUDENT EXPECTATIONS:
Students are expected to safely
perform different ROM and
flexibility exercises.

Psychomotor:

UTEP PETE Learning Experience Template

1. Students will perform various

ROM exercises that target
different joints (ankle, knee
joints, hip joints, spine, neck
joint).

Cognitive:
1. Students are going to
analyze their own joint ROM
and learned that flexibility is
joint-specific.

Affective:
1. Students will be able to
enjoy and perform new
stretches that will improve
their flexibility and range of
motion.
