Hello Mate ❤️
Answer:
The objective of Adapted Physical Education is to facilitate the student's independent function and to decrease the effect of the child's disability on his/her ability to benefit from the special education process.
This is accomplished through the use of purposeful goal directed activities and environmental modifications.
School-based Adapted Physical Education is structured to teach students to:
1. Participate regularly in developmentally age-appropriate movement and motor skills.
2. Develop a healthy level of flexibility, balance, muscular strength and endurance, body composition, and cardio-respiratory endurance.
3. Develop competency in movement and motor skills.
4. Learn game rules and strategies and demonstrate their use in game settings.
5. Demonstrate appropriate social skills in a physical activity setting.
6. Understand the benefits of regular physical activity.
