I just ran across this post. If you still need the information, for grades K-6 it's 200 minutes each 10 school days, not including recess. Grades 7 and 8 follow the requirements of K-6 as well (i.e., 200 minutes each 10 school days) if they are located on an elementary school campus.
per California Education Code 51210(g): "Physical education, with emphasis upon the physical activities for the pupils that may be conducive to health and vigor of body and mind, for a total period of time of not less than 200 minutes each 10 schooldays, exclusive of recesses and the lunch period."
For grades 7-12 it's 400 minutes each 10 schooldays, per California Eduction Code 51222(a), but with some exceptions for grades 10-12. I can provide more info on that if you need it but since you mentioned recess, I'm assuming the K-6 or K- 8 requirements apply to you, not the high school requirements.
I am currently looking for a program that allows for flexibility in scheduling. I have seen some Online programs at reputable Universities, but they often require an orientation on campus before starting the course work. If anyone has suggestions and/or experience with this, please let me know.
In the May/June 09 Great Activities newspaper they have a game called Brickball using 3 foam bricks for each student.I would love to have these bricks but not in my budget. Any ideas for suitable objects for students to build a wall? Thanks!

A teacher friend of mine is trying to get her school's PE teacher to include/offer rope jumping for those kids (K-6)who would be interested. Is there a specific program that she could get info from? (She's thinking maybe it should be one of those after-school activities, as the PE guy isn't all that interested.) Any info would be helpful--thanks.
cjodeI just bought "Beginning to Advanced Skip It Style" from one of the PE catalogs that come into my box. I have not watched it yet, but will use it as demo for my new Team Sports class for training in footwork. The site in the previous post looks GREAT!
I know some schools get enough heart rate monitors donated for several students to wear. (the book SPARK mentioned this) I see they're pretty expensive and I'm out of money for this coming year. I would like 5 or 6 as a motivation/learning tool. Am I dreaming? I know we can do it by counting heartbeats, but just not the same. Thanks! Linda
TylerOur school supported us financially and helped purchase several of the monitors we currently use. We also used our annual budget to get started with monitors. Try getting the local community involved and see if the local fitness center or other groups would be willing to donate.
I have found many great websites with demonstrations for the strength and speed training. Can't use them......only after I send the weblink to the tech guy and he can make a dvd for me....but this will be at a much later time as they are bogged down getting all the teacher computers and systems running.
So, I searched for videos on these trainings but don't really know what is inside. My request is for suggestions that show student athletes demonstrating hang clean, hang snatch, push press, back squats, etc.
My students have NOT lifted weights in a very long time, if ever. I am in great shape and probably COULD demonstrate, but I am in my 50s now and don't feel I could demonstrate as effectively as a DVD with athletes demonstrating. This is my 28th year of coaching and much has changed through the years--even in the last 5 years!--so I would like to keep up with the current trends that any of you know and hope there are dvds out there!
I am taking the cset phys ed subtest 1 that i have failed to pass twice and am seeking any help or resource you can afford me. The first time I passed the multiple choice section, the second the writte portion...i just wanted to succeed with the best effort this time through.
