This reflection by Kyle Van Dyke explores effective strategies for maximizing instruction time in physical education. By keeping discussions brief and focused, teachers can elevate student activity and engagement. The importance of providing specific feedback and recognizing student efforts fosters a positive learning environment. The study highlights how familiarizing students with sports and simplifying activities improves success rates and time spent on tasks. The use of questions targeting tactics and strategies enhances physical literacy, benefiting both movement skills and societal health.

Teaching Reflection -By: Kyle Van Dyke
Instruction Time • Keeping instruction time short increases the likelihood that students will learn while also increasing activity (Beighle & Erwin, 2013). • Goal: Be as efficient with discussions as possible to keep interest and activity level high.
2 Minute Mark 1. 2. 3.
Feedback • The critical thinking and emphasis on understanding of tactics and strategies of games provides a more enjoyable learning environment (Slade, 2011). • Providing specific feedback to students allows them to build a better understanding. • “Students are recognized and praised for efforts and positive contributions” score increased from a 1 in first two to a 4 in last.

Student Time in Activity • Student wait time decreased greatly from the first activity to the next two. • Coding sheets showed that waiting took up only 2% of time.
2. 1. 3. -Although the students being more familiar with basketball and soccer increased success, simplifying the activity also made the practice trials go much better. -This increased the time actually spent on activity.
Physical Literacy • The teacher utilized questions that dealt with tactics and strategies that applied to many sports, creating a transfer of learning. • Manipulation of time, risk, and space, combined with questions that make students think through the various aspects of performance leads to a rich understanding (Pill, 1997).
Conclusion • Utilizing TGfU results in better movers within physical education as well as a healthier society (Mandingo & Corlett, 2010). • While it is important for students to gain an understanding and learn new concepts, it is also important for them have fun:
