In what ways can I take ownership of the subject matter content
standards and make them accessible and memorable for my students?
regardless of how well prepared we think we are. There are many factors to take
into consideration when it comes to serving our students. We have learned about
the states efforts to establish clear educational standards and their development of
the Common Core State Standards as a result. According to our readings, Those
standards define the knowledge and skills students should have within their K-12
education so that they will graduate from high school able to succeed in college and
the workforce (Burden & Byrd, 2016, pg. 65). Additionally, new teachers must find
goals and objectives within our content standards. It is expected that we are
knowledgeable of our content area, but also of our content standards. The content
standards for physical education indicate that the content articulates the
activity throughout their lifetime (CDE, 2010 pg.35). Additionally, these standards
identify a sequence for delivering the content in a manner that will allow the
student to grow and gain knowledge appropriate to their developmental stages and
prior knowledge. According to theorist Jean Piaget, there is a sequence of levels, the
second level is not possible unless equilibrium has been reached at the first level,
and equilibrium of the third level only becomes possible when the equilibrium of
2
the second level is reached (Piaget, 2003, pg. s13). Piagets findings about the
foundational skills being acquired before moving on to more advanced skills really
correlate with how the Common Core State Standards are set up. The standards are
a continuum in which knowledge and skills are developed over time or grade level.
This means that if students are struggling with a certain standard, a teacher can step
back and modify teaching to fill the gaps and solidify the foundation.
From our class lectures, we have also learned about strategies to use in order
that stuck with me was the idea of simply sharing the content standard with the
students. This allows them to hear and visualize the standard and its objective. In
addition, it provides them with a goal to strive towards and an idea of what they
are supposed to know after successfully achieving the matters of the standard
(Rose, 2017). This will also allow me to plan instructional strategies and activities
standards, my students needs, and have the end goal in mind. I will use these
regards to the developmental level they are on while monitoring, modifying based
on student needs, supporting and guiding their growth. From our readings, we were
pg. 87). Here he provides important concept that relates to the difference between
what a child can achieve independently and what a child can achieve with guidance
and encouragement from a skilled partner. As teachers, we must guide and provide

proper support strategies so that we may be successful in teaching our students and
