Linganore High – Unified Physical Activity and Leadership

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

This course is designed to provide students with and without disabilities the opportunity to experience all forms of sports activities in a modified, recreational, and less competitive environment. Students will also be involved in activities that foster inclusive youth leadership skills that help students with and without disabilities find their voices by teaching them to become change agents striving for respect and inclusion. Students are instructed in specific modified sports and games activities that lead to the improved development of peer relationships, and transition to lifetime recreational activities for maintaining a healthy and physically active lifestyle. This concept encourages co-leadership opportunities amongst inclusive pairs/small groups to promote a deeper understanding of the strengths, gifts and skills of all students.
