By the end of the second grade, pupils must know and be able to do everything required in the previous grades for courses in physical education offered in public schools. Instruction in kindergarten, first grade and second grade in physical education must be designed so that pupils meet the following performance Standard by the completion of the second grade:

1. Demonstrate competency in the motor skills, patterns of movement and safety practices needed to perform a variety of physical activities, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Demonstrate the basic elements of forms of movement;
   • (b) Perform a variety of basic manipulative skills in isolation;
   • (c) Perform simple motor skills and patterns of movement; and
   • (d) Demonstrate safe practices while participating in physical activities

2. Achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Practice health-related components of fitness in various physical activities; and
   • (b) Identify the physiological signs of light, moderate and vigorous physical activity.

By the end of the fifth grade, pupils must know and be able to do everything required in the previous grades for courses in physical education offered in public schools. Instruction in third grade, fourth grade and fifth grade in physical education must be designed so that pupils meet the following performance Standard by the completion of the fifth grade:

1. Demonstrate competency in motor skills, patterns of movement and safety practices needed to perform a variety of physical activities, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Use locomotor and nonlocomotor movements in physical activities;
   • (b) Perform simple combinations of manipulative skills;
   • (c) Perform simple and moderately difficult motor skills and patterns of movement; and
   • (d) Demonstrate safe practices while participating in physical activities.

2. Achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to: (a) Participate in various physical activities using the health-related components of fitness in those physical activities; and (b) Explain the long-term health and fitness benefits of participating in physical activities.

By the end of the eighth grade, pupils must know and be able to do everything required in the previous grades for courses in physical education offered in public schools. Instruction in sixth grade, seventh grade and eighth grade in physical education must be designed so that pupils meet the following performance Standard by the completion of the eighth grade:

1. Demonstrate competency in the motor skills, patterns of movement and safety practices needed to perform a variety of physical activities, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Apply locomotor and nonlocomotor movements while participating in physical activities;
   • (b) Demonstrate manipulative skills in a variety of environments and under several different conditions;
   • (c) Execute moderately difficult and complex motor skills and patterns of movement while participating in physical activities; and
   • (d) Demonstrate safe practices while participating in physical activities.

2. Achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Develop a plan for physical activity that uses principles of training or conditioning to improve his or her physical fitness; and
   • (b) Monitor the physiological effects during various physical activities and levels of intensity of those physical activities.

By the end of high school, pupils must know and be able to do everything required in the previous grades for courses in physical education offered in public schools. Instruction in high school in physical education must be designed so that pupils meet the following performance Standard by the completion of high school:

1. Demonstrate competency in motor skills, patterns of movement and safety practices needed to perform a variety of physical activities, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Demonstrate proficiency in multiple forms of movement while participating in physical activities;
   • (b) Perform manipulative skills in combination with locomotor or nonlocomotor movements in a variety of environments and under several different conditions;
   • (c) Execute complex motor skills and various patterns of movement while participating in physical activities; and
   • (d) Demonstrate safe practices while participating in physical activities.

2. Achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness, as demonstrated by the ability of the pupil to:

   • (a) Develop a plan for exercise and physical activity that uses data related to the pupil's individual fitness to improve his or her physical fitness; and
   • (b) Analyze health and fitness benefits arising from participating in various physical activities.
