Model Affect

This study examined the attitudes of upper elementary school students toward physical education. Fourth and fifth grade students (N = 1344) from 13 school districts, 17 schools, and five states completed an attitude instrument with scores that had been previously validated for a two factor model (affect and cognition) and a four factor model (affect and cognition with the subfactors of teacher and curriculum). For the four factor model, there was a difference between grades for both affect-curriculum and affect-teacher (F(1, 1340) = 6.25, p < .01, ηp2 = .005). Similarly, for the two factor model the affect variable was different between grades, indication that as students age their affect toward physical education decreases (F(1, 1341)= 48.65, p < .001, ηp2 = .035). This study suggests that upper elementary school students have an overall favorable attitude toward physical education, impacted by how they think and feel about the curriculum and teacher.

The Impact

The findings in the following article were gathered from a qualitative study designed to elicit the impact of providing play opportunities for children in the upper elementary school grades. One of the major themes that the researcher discerned was that play had a significant influence on ESL children by facilitating communication and socialization at the same time as it nurtured independence and self-esteem. This report, then, (a) rationalizes the use of play in classes for children 9-11 years of age, (b) defines play, and (c) describes how play influences ESL children specifically.
