The test covers knowledge of fitness, fundamental movements, and sports that comprise the
content of physical education classes; knowledge of the foundations for teaching these
activities; and knowledge of crucial topics in health and safety. On this test, you will be
asked to describe characteristics of movement forms; design and/or prescribe appropriate
movement routines to achieve specific goals; and provide explanations and justifications from
the foundations of physical education, as well as health and safety issues.
The test contains two constructed response questions that must be answered in a one-hour
session. The two questions deal with health-related fitness, the ability to analyze
movement forms in terms of the progression from introductory to advanced levels of skill
performance, and the selection and description of movement activities that will enable
children to reach specified goals in physical education.
The two questions address two different areas of physical education.
