Cooperative learning activities are a staple in many physical education programs. Teachers often use team building and trust activities at the beginning of the school year to get to know their students. However, many physical education teachers focus solely on the affective domain. The purpose of this article is to provide physical education teachers with a deeper knowledge base of the cooperative-learning (CL) instructional model and provide samples of how to include cognitive concepts during these activities. The article describes and explains the five key elements of CL and provides concrete examples of how to use and implement a variety of CL activities. Each of the sample activities are linked to specific SHAPE America National Standards and grade-level outcomes. The authors also provide some sample assessments for each CL activity.
