Formative assessment

Formative assessment shall help to promote learning and develop competence in the subject. The pupils demonstrate and develop their competence in physical education in Years 5, 6 and 7 when they participate and learn in a variety of movement activities, follow the rules for activities and games, and understand differences between themselves and others. The pupils also demonstrate competence by reflecting on movement activities, social interaction, nature wandering and experiences in nature.

The teacher shall facilitate for pupil participation and stimulate the desire to learn through a variety of movement activities the pupils perform alone or together with others, and through their assessment of their own work in physical education. The teacher and pupils shall engage in dialogue about their development in physical education. The pupils shall have the opportunity to experiment in the subject. With the competence the pupils have demonstrated as the starting point, they shall have the opportunity to express what they believe they have achieved, and what they find they have done better than before. The teacher shall provide guidance on further learning and adapt the teaching to enable the pupils to use the guidance provided to develop their competence in movement activities, play, games, self-rescue in water and outdoor life in the local environment.
