Hello Homeschool Families!

Registration is now available for our Spring 2024 NDSU Let's Move in Homeschool Physical Education Program.  

GENERAL PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Welcome to the 12th year of NDSU's Let's Move In Homeschool program!  The goal of this program is to provide children with enjoyable health and physical education lessons within emotionally and physically safe environments.  This outreach service is facilitated by NDSU's Health and Physical Education program faculty and pre-service teachers.  Under faculty supervision, pre-service teachers design developmentally appropriate lessons for homeschooled children and deliver these lessons on-campus.

PROGRAM FEES

Our program fees are $15/child with a total $30/family maximum.

Physical Education Lessons

Dr. Joe Deutsch oversees the spring physical education programming.  Our physical education lessons use best-practices in physical activity to help students as they develop their physical literacy through all three domains of learning (physical, cognitive, and affective).  Physical education lessons are based upon the National and North Dakota Physical Education Standards:

Standard 1:  The physically literate individual demonstrates competency in a variety of motor skills and movement patterns.
Standard 2:  The physically literate individual applies knowledge of concepts, principles, strategies and tactics related to movement and performance.
Standard 3:  The physically literate individual demonstrates the knowledge and skills to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical activity and fitness.
Standard 4:  The physically literate individual exhibits responsible personal and social behavior that respects self and others.
Standard 5:  The physically literate individual recognizes the value of physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self-expression and/or social interaction.

CLASS DELIVERY

Classes are held on Tuesdays starting February 13th and continue through April 23rd (with no class on March 5th {NDSU spring break}).

Classes will run on-campus at NDSU in the Bentson Bunker Field House (BBFH) on Tuesdays 12:30pm - 1:15pm and 1:15pm - 2:00pm.  

**Your child's class time and group will be determined after registration closes, as we need to make groups of similar ages in order to deliver safe and  developmentally appropriate lessons.  The program can accommodate approximately 80 children/semester.**

Families are welcome to stay in our gym (on the stage) while children are attending class.
