Cycling a New Physical Education Unit. Recreation to Competition: K-12
Like soccer, cycling is late to Physical Education. Till now, cycling has been without a safe venue to learn; or, accessible skill building education to develop beginners to competition; low impact, limited range of motion and best cross training life sport. Cycling is a level playing field, transcends diversity and inclusive. YES Curricula satisfies National Standards and Common Core.
YES GOAL: is to provide Professional Development for Physical Education Teacher, nationwide, by certified YES School Cycling Instructors so all can learn the spot of cycling.
YES LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
1. To increase the number of youth receiving bicycle safety training from 10% taught in an after school program (mostly in elementary school) to 100% of all the students: K-12 in the school by implementing a Physical Education Bicycle Unit which is taught annually. The YES Cycling Programs transcends the barriers of economics because all students can attend not just those with bicycle and physical diversity.
2. To increase the sport of cycling as a physical education unit by providing the educational cycling skill foundation that all forms of cycling disciplines can build on, from .001% of the educational institutions to 10% of all educational institutions in America by 2025. The introduction of cycling from secondary to collegiate level is possible using the YES curricula that meets the National Standards and Common Core.
3. To decrease the number of youth suffering from obesity because of a lack of activity by introducing a health aerobic lifestyle sport that even a sedentary person can do even with disabilities and a short range of motion. A child with special needs may never drive a car but maybe able to drive a bicycle giving more meaning to their lives and health. Not to mention helping the environment by not driving smog emitting vehicle.
SESSION CONTENT: The session starts with a Youth Educational Sports, Inc. (YES) introduction as to who we are and the sport professional background. The participants will learn how the YES K-12 curricula were developed to meet the National Standards and Common Core. And lastly, the certification of YES School Cycling Instructors so they are qualified to provide cycling professional development and team teaching at schools for teachers k-12. The YES Curricula and YES School Cycling Instructors are being developed nationwide for easy access by schools. The future is interscholastic competition among senior high schools.
