Champaign Centennial High School

• Who – The students are eligible for participation by staff recommendation or IEP placement only. The majority of students enrolled in this physical education class are autistic. There are a few with down syndrome as well.

• What – The class goals are to overall make the students feel comfortable in a gym setting and participate regularly in physical education. The normal lessons included kickball, soccer, and field hockey. The students not participating the normal activity are allowed to walk around the gym wearing pedometers. Overall all the students interact well with each other and are very encouraging.

Champaign CentennialHigh School

• Where - There are 20 students in the class, 1 teacher, and 5 aids. The class takes place in a normal gym setting during the same period of 2 other physical education classes. Only major modifications during the lessons observed were the use of soft balls rather than a normal soccer ball.

• When – The class period is 50 minutes, which is the longest adapted physical education class period observed.

• How – The students began to make progress after each lesson. They enjoyed being active in the gym and participating in physical activities. The instructor has been teaching adapted physical education class for 12 years and he said this was one of his most well behaved classes.

Edison Middle School

Who •The students in the special physical education class at Edison Middle School consisted of students with down syndrome, autism, and some with milder degrees of mental retardation. •There were no students recovering from injuries but there was one student limited to her wheel chair due to her condition.

Page 6: KIN 360 Observation Project

Edison Middle School

Environment•The class takes place in the north gym of the school which includes a basketball court in the gym, leaving plenty of room for activities and lessons.•The equipment that was available included everything: basketballs, volleyballs, Frisbees, soccer balls, and even scooters. •There were foam balls in many sizes to account for students who were not ready to use a full size ball. •The one thing they used that all of the students loved was an overly large blow-up ball that would roll around the room; which I have never seen used with a non adapted physical education class before with my experience.

Page 7: KIN 360 Observation Project

Edison Middle School

Time•There was an allotted time of 40 minutes Monday through Friday for the adapted physical education class. •Despite the fact that they get to have class everyday, the teacher inferred that their physical education class was the first one to get replaced or trumped by an event or necessary reason to remove a student from class.

Page 8: KIN 360 Observation Project

Edison Middle School

Activities •The activities that took place were a range of games from kickball to volleyball to riding around on the scooters, just simply staying active. •The amount of time that they spend on individual and team activities varies due to necessary adaptations needed each day.

Page 9: KIN 360 Observation Project

Edison Middle School

Adaptations•The biggest obstacle that the teacher felt was not being able to avoid certain outbreaks of students or uncomfortable situations they may experience on a day to day basis. •There was also one aid that had the responsibility to watch over one student specifically but still, an adaptation necessary for her IEP.

• IEP Goals• Normal participation when applicable (some games too

rough for some students)

• Biggest Development Concern• Getting students into games that allow them to

participate at the same level as their peers

• Impressions• School and teacher do good job of integrating students

into P.E. when applicable for certain students• Student progression in ability once familiar with a game

was noticed (Omnikin ball), otherwise students very well behaved, developed, minimal improvement seen

University of Illinois- Urbana Champaign

Wheelchair Basketball• Types of Disabilities – The athletes have

several types of disabilities. One of the male athletes is a below the knee amputee and another has cerebral palsy. The majority of the other athletes are quadriplegics due to both spinal cord injuries or congenital illnesses.• Overall Impressions – Incredible athletes who

exhibit both skill and intelligence. The athletes can shoot, pass, and defend.

Page 29: KIN 360 Observation Project

University of Illinois – Urbana Champaign

Wheelchair Basketball• Participation – Since the athletes were training

for a tournament, we did not participate within practice.• Instruction – Coaches use both group instruction

and individual instruction. They provide positive reinforcement in both general and specific feedback. The coaches are very general in terms of effort, but utilize specific feedback when referring to form on shooting or wheelchair use.• Setting – The athletes practice at the ARC in

gym 1. The athletes use basketball chairs that vary in height depending on the position (forwards had taller chairs).

Page 30: KIN 360 Observation Project

University of Illinois – Urbana Champaign

Wheelchair Basketball• Workouts – The athletes have 2 hour long

practices 4 days a week with individual practices after the team practice. The individual practices last for an hour.

• Performance – The athletes vary in terms of mastery but all of the athletes are impressive. One of the male athletes is a Paraolympian. So he appears to be the best athlete on the floor, but both teams have athletes that seemingly do not miss shots.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS – URBANA CHAMPAIGN

WHEELCHAIR RACING TEAM• Who – The athletes observed in DRES are elite

racers. They were 3 female Paraolympians. The athletes were intense, determined, and physically fit. They performed during practice to the best of their ability and showed a great deal of athleticism.

Page 33: KIN 360 Observation Project

University of Illinois –Urbana Champaign

Wheelchair Racing Team • What – Each athlete has their own chair that was

strapped into a treadmill type machine. It was interesting to see how fast they could move and how the activity simulated running on a treadmill. The athletes are built with a strong core and a strong upper body. They performed the “sprinting” activity circuit for around an hour before lifting. The coach outlined a circuit for the athletes to follow, and provided tips throughout the practice. There was also an assistant coach who primarily kept time for each circuit activity.

Page 34: KIN 360 Observation Project

University of Illinois – Urbana Champaign

Wheelchair racing team• Where – The facility is located in DRES. There is

two rooms that are used during the practice; the rolling room and the lifting room. Most of the equipment in the lifting room is designed to strengthen the upper body. In the roller room, there are 6 treadmill like machines. Each machine is kept in place with straps. There are 3 wheels on the racing chairs.• When – The athletes participated in a 2 hour

rigorous work out.

Page 35: KIN 360 Observation Project

INTERVIEW WITH AMANDA KING

• Classification: 1.0• Hometown: Arvada, CO• Year in school: Sophomore• Major: Music Education

Page 37: KIN 360 Observation Project

INTERVIEW

Background

My disability is congenital. I was born with a birth defect which affected 4 of my vertebrae (T11 to L2). This blocked my spinal cord, causing paralysis.

Page 38: KIN 360 Observation Project

Interview

Early experiences with sports

•My experience with physical activity when I was younger was great. I tried out different sports and learned how to swim and ski at a young age. In my school my PE program was very good. I loved all of the different sports that I tried, although I didn't like to compete in all of the different sports competitively.

Page 39: KIN 360 Observation Project

Interview

Current sport

•I was introduced to wheelchair basketball when I was in 8th grade, but I didn't start playing until I was in 9th grade. I wanted to try it because I enjoyed sports, and I wanted to try and play a team sport competitively. I found that I really enjoyed the sport.

Page 40: KIN 360 Observation Project

Interview

Impact

•Sports have done many things for me. They have helped me learn more about other disabilities, and even more about my own. I have been able to make friendships with a lot more people, and I have had great opportunities arise from being able to play sports. I was able to travel to many different places, and now I am here in Illinois attending school.

Page 41: KIN 360 Observation Project

Interview

Recommendations

•I would recommend wheelchair athletics to a younger person. Sports have done so many things for me in life. I have made great friends, learned a lot of things, and I have had so many opportunities in my life because of sports. And playing them is so much fun.
