其他摘要:An elementary classroom teacher (ECT) has a busy day. The teachers teach their class, prepare classmaterials, and may supervise the lunchroom or the playground at recess time (Daily Physical Activityin School, 2005), attend meetings with parents and perform a number of other responsibilities. Forthis reason planning time is a very important component for the ECT. Planning time for the ECT isusually taken when students are in elementary physical education. This study investigated howelementary physical education can assist the ECT in their planning time. In this study 219 ECT fromthree states and 18 different schools participated in this study. The ECT was given a short survey to fillout regarding how, or if, planning time helps or benefits the ECT. The results found that the ECTappreciated the planning time that it was needed in order for them to be successful in the classroomand because of planning time the students would benefit. The results also showed a great respectfrom the ECT for elementary physical education, which can be beneficial for principals and otherschool administrators.
