3-6 Curriculum Set #2:

Curriculum Components:

3-6 Manual: Developed through San Diego State University, funded by the Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI).  Over 500 different activities presented in more than 20 themed, instructional units. Each unit is written in scope and sequence and includes activities aligned to NASPE National Standards (which are provided on each lesson). Red pages “Focus on Fitness;” examples include: “ASAP’s” (Active Soon As Possible), “Chasing and Fleeing,” “Map Challenges” (plus 7 others). Blue pages shine the “Spotlight On Skills;” examples include: “Flying Disc,” “Hockey,” “Recess Activities” (and 7 more).

Combining an activity from “Fitness” with one from “Skills,” then adding a cool-down, creates a complete SPARK experience. Personalized fitness monitoring, social skills themes, clear visuals and diagrams, and a variety of integration tips complete this comprehensive curriculum.
