Using a Fishing Sport Education Season to Promote outside Engagement
Wahl-Alexander, Zachary; Hastie, Peter A.; Johnson, Nate
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v89 n7 p28-33 2018
This article will provide a detailed account of a fishing sport education season focusing on the six key features of the model. Five specialty roles were created for this season, specifically for the fishing content. With this fishing content, teams participated in a variety of skill challenges, and fishing derbies that were staggered throughout the 19-day season. In this iteration, the culminating event was composed of a two-day Bass Master Classic, and an award ceremony held during the final class period. The instructor incorporated extracurricular fishing by allotting additional points to teams that not only fished outside of school, but also chose to participate with family and friends. Using the sport education model for instruction helps to produce children who are not only literate and competent in lifetime physical activities but are also enthusiastic about future participation.
