7Instructional Strategies for Adapted Physical Education
Philosophical Approaches to Adapted Physical Education and Sport
Humanistic philosophy
Important figures• Abraham Maslow (1908–1970)• Carl Rogers (1902–1987)
Applied behavior analysis
Important figure• B.F Skinner (1904–1990)
Maslow’s Theory of Self-Actualization
Adapted, by permission, from C. Sherrill, 2004, Adapted physical activity, recreation and sport: Crossdisciplinary and lifespan, 5th ed. (Boston, MA: WCB/McGraw-Hill), 95..
Interaction Between Performer, Environment, and Task
Adapted from K.M. Newell, 1986, Constraints on the development of coordina-tion. In Motor development in children: Aspects of coordination and control, edited by M.B. Wade and H.T. Whiting (Dordrecht, The Netherlands: Niihof), 341-360. With kind permission of Springer Science and Business Media.
Motor Skill Tenets1. Growth and maturation influence the ability to learn
a movement skill.
2. Mechanical and physiological principles of movement dictate the best way to perform a given skill.
3. Reinforcement and repetition are needed when learning a new skill.
(continued)
Motor Skill Tenets (continued)4. Emotion affects the process of learning motor
skills. 5. Success at a given task leads to improved learning. 6. Learning takes place more quickly when practice
sessions are separated by adequate rest periods. 7. Motor skills that are overlearned are retained
longer.
Curricular Modifications Leading to Meaningful Integration
• The “same” curriculum
• Multilevel curriculum
• Modified curriculum
• Different curriculum
Curricular Approaches
Top-Down
An emphasis on the teaching of specific, functional, age-appropriate leisure skills
(continued)
Curricular Approaches (continued)
Bottom-Up
A developmentally focused curriculum with an emphasis on abilities expected at a
particular chronological age
Categories of Activity Modifications
• Equipment
• Rules
• Environment
• Instruction
Effective Teachers Adapt Their Instruction To . . .
• The nature of the content being taught
• Their personal skills and preferences
• The characteristics of the learners
• The teaching context
Teaching Styles
Reproductive styles
• Command
• Practice/task
• Reciprocal
• Self-check
• Inclusion/invitation(continued)
Teaching Styles (continued)
Productive styles
• Guided discovery
• Convergent discovery
• Divergent discovery
(after Mosston and Ashworth, 1994)
Teaching Formats• One-to-one instruction
• Small-group instruction
• Large-group instruction
• Mixed-group instruction
• Peer teaching or tutoring (continued)
Teaching Formats (continued)
• Self-paced independent work
• Cooperative learning
• Reverse mainstreaming
• Teaching stations
Components of an Instructional Episode
• Instruction
• Optional prompt
• Student’s response
• Consequences
• Intertrial interval
The Response Prompting Continuum
Physical prompts
Complete physical manipulationManipulative prompting
Minimal guidance
Visual prompts
Complete skill demonstrationPartial skill demonstration
Gestural prompting(continued)
The Response Prompting Continuum (continued)
Verbal prompts

No prompts
Initiation with environmental goalImitative initiation
Initiation in free play
(after Watkinson and Wall, 1982)
Guidelines for Effective Prompting • Use prompts that are meaningful to the student.
• Consider the learner’s characteristics.
• Be careful not to underprompt.
• Be careful not to overprompt.
• Focus the learner’s attention on the task.
(continued)
Guidelines for Effective Prompting (continued)
• Make sure that the prompt is effective.
• Pretest and assess carefully, as students might need less assistance than you assume.
• Fade physical proximity.
• Couple the appropriate verbal prompt with other prompts used.
• Fade verbal prompts.
Developmental Task Analysis
• Developmental task analysis outlines all of the task and environmental factors that influence the performance of students in the general movement categories (e.g., throw, strike, jump).
• Under each of these factors, modifications are given, from the simplest to the most difficult.
A General Task Analysis (Throwing)Factors Size of
object being thrown
Distance object must be thrown
Weight of object being thrown
Accuracy required
Speed target is moving at
Accelera-tion or deceler-ation of the target
Direction in which target is moving at
Small Short Moderately light
None Stationary No move-ment
No move-ment
Simple Left to right
to Medium Medium Moderately heavy
Little Slow Steady speed
Right to left
Moderate Moderate Deceler-ating
Toward thrower
Complex Large Large Light or heavy
Much Fast Acceler-ating
Away from thrower

A Specific Task Analysis (Striking)
Factors Size of ball Length of striking implement
Predictability of trajectory
Simple S1–12 inches L1–hand P1–rolled along ground
To S2–9 inches L2–table tennis paddle
P2–bounced along ground
S3–4 inches L3–18-inch dowel rod
P3–ball tossed in air
Complex S4–tennis ball L4–plastic bat
Prescriptive Planning and Instructional Models
Project ACTIVE
• Incorporates a test-assess-prescribe-evaluate planning process
• Includes normative as well as criterion-referenced tests in the areas of motor ability, nutrition, physical fitness, and posture
(continued)
Prescriptive Planning and Instructional Models (continued)
The Data-Based Gymnasium
• A prescriptive instructional model that provides information on effectively managing the learning environment of individuals with severe disabilities
• Unique in its specific delineation of applied behavior analysis techniques as a means of accomplishing meaningful learning objectives
(continued)
Prescriptive Planning and Instructional Models (continued)
MOVE
• A top-down activity-based curriculum developed to assist students with profound disabilities to learn the basic motor skills needed for everyday activities in the home and community
• Provides a sequence of age-appropriate motor
activities valuable to the individual’s quest for independent movement in the home and community
(continued)
Prescriptive Planning and Instructional Models (continued)
Moving to Inclusion
• Consists of nine books, available in English and French, that address a variety of disability groups.
• Each book provides ideas for individualizing and
modifying activities.
• These resources are particularly valuable when planning to include students with disabilities in regular physical education classes.
