| Competences specific to PE | Curricular content | Curricular assessment criteria |
| C1. Implement a work plan to improve or maintain individual fitness in relation to health. | • Strength and speed: concept, characteristics, effects and training methods. Safety standards and risk prevention. | 2. Relate physical activities to the effects they have on the human body’s various systems. |
| • Fitness and health assessment tests (questionnaires, tests and quizzes). | 4. Measure the intensity of the task performed using the heart rate. 7. Become aware of individual physical condition and show willingness to improve it. | |
| • Design and execution of a warm-up suitable to the physical activity to be performed. • Elements of a task plan. | 1. Plan and implement a general warm-up, recognising its main effects. | |
| Learning objectives | Learning content | Specific assessment criteria |
| 1. Assessing individual fitness and health. | • Physical fitness tests (Cooper run test, long jump, medicine ball throw, etc.) | 1. Identify individual physical fitness strengths and weaknesses. 2. Identify individual physical condition and develop personal commitments, through a portfolio. |
| 2. Identify the elements of a task plan. | • The elements of the task plan: assessment of the level of physical condition, assessment of interests, establishment of objectives, selection of physical capacities, selection of exercises,review of materials to be used and organisation of the session. | 3. Develop a task plan aimed at strength or speed work. |
| 3. Design appropriate warm-ups for the designed physical activity. | • Indentifying the different parts of an activation-warm-up phase: joint mobility, continuous running, stretching. • Creating an appropriate warm-up for the activity to be performed. | 4. Develop an appropriate activation phase for the physical activity to be performed. 5. Perform heart rate monitoring during the activation phase. |
| 4. Build a task plan for each skill (strength and speed). | • Creating a task plan to work on strength. • Creating a work plan to work on speed. | 3. Develop a task plan aimed at strength or speed work. 6. Execute a task plan developed by another group and relate the work plan to the effects it has on the various systems in the human body. |
