A foundational unit for 7th-grade students focusing on the physical prerequisites of martial arts and self-defense: balance, stability, safe movement, and injury prevention through breakfalls. Students explore how controlling their center of gravity and core can enhance their physical safety and stability.

This sequence integrates physics concepts with fundamental floor skills to help students understand the mechanics of tumbling. Students explore center of mass, rotational mechanics, leverage, and force absorption through hands-on practice and video analysis.

This sequence focuses on the biomechanics and safety of gymnastics apparatus work, specifically the balance beam and vault. Students progress from foundational balance skills to complex vaulting mechanics, emphasizing center of gravity, explosive power, and peer spotting.

This sequence explores the physics of gymnastics, focusing on biomechanical principles like center of gravity, rotational inertia, and momentum transfer to improve tumbling performance. Students transition from static balance to dynamic rotation, culminating in a frame-by-frame video analysis of their own movement.

This 7th-grade physical education sequence focuses on the artistic side of gymnastics, teaching students to transition between isolated tumbling skills to create a cohesive routine. Students will explore choreography, aesthetic extensions, and peer feedback to refine their movements before a final showcase.

A 7th-grade gymnastics unit focusing on the physics of balance on elevated surfaces and the explosive mechanics of vaulting. Students explore center of gravity, rhythmic approaches, and safe landing techniques through station-based inquiry and skill-building.

A foundational gymnastics sequence for 7th grade, focusing on safety, core engagement, and body mechanics across floor exercises from landings to handstands and cartwheels.

A 5-lesson sequence for 7th graders focusing on the psychological aspects of human trafficking, specifically grooming, peer recruitment, and boundary setting. Students learn to identify manipulative relationship dynamics and practice refusal skills to protect themselves and their peers.

This sequence explores the critical principles of water safety, from environmental risk assessment and buoyancy science to identifying distress and performing non-entry rescues. Students move from understanding physical risks to becoming advocates for safe practices in their communities.

This comprehensive 7th-grade health sequence empowers students to move from passive knowledge to active risk assessment in fire and water safety. Students analyze fire chemistry, design complex escape routes, differentiate between water environments, and master non-entry rescue techniques.

This project-based sequence shifts focus to community awareness, reporting protocols, and systemic understanding of human trafficking. Students investigate labor trafficking, recognize signs in peers, learn professional reporting protocols, and develop bystander intervention skills, culminating in a peer-led awareness campaign.

This sequence focuses on the technical foundations of football (soccer), including dribbling, passing, receiving, and tactical movement. Students progress from individual ball mastery to dynamic team-based possession drills.

This project-based sequence integrates all skills into a simulated tournament structure where students take ownership of team management. Teams draft lineups, design playbooks, and officiate matches, gaining a holistic understanding of the sport. The sequence focuses on applying technical skills and tactical knowledge in a competitive environment, with designated reflection periods to adjust strategies. Students learn that successful outcomes rely on preparation, adaptation, and fair play as much as athletic ability.

This sequence focuses on the individual technical foundations of football (soccer), progressing from dribbling and passing to receiving, shielding, and dynamic possession. Students develop individual ball mastery to understand how it contributes to team success.
