Year 10 - Physical education

Future goals and healthy habits

Health and wellbeing: commitment to a personalised training plan

Unit Summary

This unit will develop pupils' ability to design and carry out a training programme with a focus on physical fitness and commitment to exercise that is enjoyable and tailored. Pupils will also learn about nutrition to help support them in living a healthy and active life beyond school.

Lesson Summary

You will learn to formulate suitable long-term and short-term goals to allow healthy habits to blossom.

Key Notes

  • Move: demonstrating healthy training habits by recording workouts supports consistency and helps you to track progress.
  • Move: independently leading your own physical training requires safe participation, away from PE lessons.
  • Think: setting long-term and short-term training, nutrition and sleep goals build habits that positively impact life.
  • Feel: Setting long-term and short-term targets boosts motivation by providing clear milestones to work towards.
  • Connect: recognising and articulating strengths and flaws in habits of classmates needs to be done with sensitivity.

Vocabulary To Learn

  • healthy habits: behaviours and routines that promote overall well-being and good health
  • long-term goal: a target you aim to achieve over an extended period of time (e.g. months or years)
  • short-term goal: a target you aim to achieve quickly (e.g. weeks or a few months) - often a stepping stone for a longer-term goal

Common Mistakes To Avoid

  • Progress will always be made at the same rate.
