The purpose of this article is to provide information to general physical education teachers on how to conduct a self-contained adapted physical education (APE) class. The article begins with an example of a traditional model for a self-contained APE class, where all students work on the same goals using basically the same equipment and activities. This is then contrasted with an alternative model that corresponds to the students' individualized education program (IEP), in which students work on individually prescribed goals and objectives. (Contains 2 figures.)
