A Toolkit for Teacher of All Subjects

5. Cooperation and joint planning with teachers of other subjects

Cooperation concerns mainly the observation of learning styles. Physical activity allows PE teachers to observe the students’ different learning styles and to offer thereby the teachers of other subjects a point of reference useful to consider in the learning processes and activities of other areas. Such cooperation can develop the necessary activities and actions in the classroom.
Overcoming the lack of flexibility of curricula can take place within the project work, by involving teachers from other subjects on concrete projects and initiatives where the teaching objectives, the role of each teacher ( or class councils ), the final products of the students and the certification of skills and evaluation ( and self-assessment ) are clear and well – defined

Learning Objective

The purpose of this step is to promote a common consideration among teachers upon the added value of PE on the educational path of the students and on the exchange of experiences and skills among teachers of different subjects; it is also useful for the first two years of secondary school, especially when it comes to tackling early school leaving.
