Physical Activity in IB MYP Grade 2 Physical and Health Education
In IB MYP Grade 2 Physical and Health Education, Physical Activity gives developing learners (ages 12–13) the chance to practise exploring active play, developing enjoyment of physical activity and building fitness through regular activity.
MYP Physical and Health Education is assessed against four criteria (A: knowing and understanding, B: planning for performance, C: applying and performing and D: reflecting and improving performance). Regular practice with physical activity builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise

Use these resources for homework, end-of-unit revision and catching up on anything missed in class.
For teachers
Use physical activity activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.
Warm up properly and record how your body responds. Noticing heart rate, breathing and recovery makes the theory real.
