PHYSICAL EDUCATION CONTENT EXAM ACTUAL QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
Components of Health-Related Fitness - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅1. Cardio respiratory Endurance
2. Muscular Strength
3. Muscular Endurance
4. Flexibility
5. Healthy Body Composition
National Association for Sport and PE (NASPE)'s - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Identifies quality PE as both
developmentally and instructionally appropriate for the actual children involved.
Developmentally + Instructionally Appropriate - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Consider both physical and
cognitive development by enabling students to analyze, communicate, question, integrate, apply
concepts, and attain multicultural worldviews.
Also promotes affective development throughout the school year.
Physical Fitness - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Defines the individual as being able to complete all of one's
daily living tasks without become overly tired and still having enjoyment for other actives.
Effective fitness programs include: aerobic exercises, resistant training, and flexibility.
Body + Spacial Awareness - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Pointing, touching, seeing different parts of the body
Fit body into differently sized and shaped spaces
Spacial Concepts: up, down, right, left, forward, backwards, diagonal. (Levels: low, medium, high)
Movement Concepts - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Pathways + PLANES (vertical, horizontal, circle)
, Energy (short term, high term)
Time (shorter, longer)
Speed (slow, medium, fast)
Force (soft, hard)
Torque - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Rotational version of force. How much given force can make
something/someone rotate or turn.
Example. Skater with longer arms, rotates quicker.
Bio mechanical Summation - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Summation of forces is to attain maximal force with
any movement that used multiple muscles in a manner that enables generating the maximum force
possible.
Concept: Force-motion states that, when we produce or change movement, unbalanced forces act upon
our bodies or objects we manipulate.
Locomotor Skills Vs. Non locomotor Skills - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Walking, running, hopping, jumping,
skipping, galloping, sliding, galloping sideways, leaping.

striking.
Manipulative + Object Control Skill - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅Fine Motor: zipping zippers, clasps, twist
ties, pencils, drawing, using utensils...
Manipulative: pushing, pulling, lifting, swinging, sticking, throwing, catching, kicking, rolling a ball,
bouncing, dribbling (using an object or piece of equipment)
