Giving A Proper P.E. Demonstration

By: Jimmy Cox

In order that the audience will have a complete understanding of the purpose of your physical education demonstration and be able to grasp the meaning of each activity, it is necessary to have a leader describe the program as it moves along. Here is a descriptive talk, which may be given along with the program. It will help a great deal to have a loud speaking system.

Here's an example of how to open your presentation.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We welcome you to the Physical Education demonstration given by the High School Physical Education Department. The purpose of this demonstration is to acquaint you with the activity and work of this department. We sincerely hope that you will leave the gymnasium tonight with a clearer conception of what is meant by Physical Education and what is being done by the Physical Education Department in this school.

There has been little attempt to dress up the program. Rather we have attempted to demonstrate to you some of the activities taught in the Physical Education classes which meet times each week throughout the school year. In addition to the regular class work in Physical Education and our athletic program, which includes football, basketball, and track, we have set up an excellent intramural program, which meets the needs of the entire student body. An attempt has been made to make this intramural program as interesting as possible and to include every student, not only the efficient and "headlined" regular on the team, but also the shy, backward, high school lad who lacks the physique or burning desire to make the regular team. Our intramural program has been set up as a leisure time program and includes such activities as six-man football, basketball, free throwing, volleyball, badminton, ping pong, track, soft ball, golf, tennis, boxing, shuffleboard, horseshoes and many others.

Then lay out a list of objectives for your audience to follow. These objectives might include:

1. The promotion of health and Physical fitness.

2. The development of character, good citizenship and social well being.

3. Worthy use of leisure time.

4. The development of neuro muscular control.

5. Help the pupil to adjust himself to social conditions.

6. The development of leadership.

7. The development of the power of self-expression.

8. The development of safety skills.

9. The development of useful skills in activities, which have a carry-over value.

Explain that this program is a demonstration of the work done in both departments. No effort has been made to segregate the better students from the poorer. Each number is demonstrated by entire classes.

The aim of the department is to give each student a program that will be of benefit during school and in later life.

(Before each activity a few comments may be made regarding the activity.)

For example, you can explain a co-recreational activity to the group by stating that an effort is being made throughout the country to arrange boy and girl groups for students so that they may study and enjoy activities together. There are many leisure time activities, which can be enjoyed by both boys and girls. Activities will now be shown which may be useful during the noon hour, recreation periods, such as fun nights, parties, play days, etc., as well as in later life.

Giving the group this type of an example and explanation will help them understand the importance of their physical education programs.
