Online Resources for Physical Education

The online instructional resource page is intended to provide curriculum support for teachers. The Physical Education resources cover concepts and skills to support instruction that aligns with the Colorado Academic Standards for grades K-12. Many of these online resources can also be found within the Physical Education instructional units of the District Sample Curriculum Project.

The resources provided on this website are intended to provide a quick access list for educators to use in a way that supports their instructional planning. Provided resources should be previewed and used with teacher discretion. Because this page contains resources outside of the CDE website, CDE cannot control changes in outside content and listing these resources does not indicate an endorsement by the Colorado Department of Education.
