Physical education scope and sequence: Grades 9-12
SSTracker (Scintillation Cyber Solutions, LLC). Online physical education curriculum and training software.
Year: 36 weeks. Weekly time: 135 to 240 minutes (45 to 60 minutes, 3 to 4 sessions). Ages: about ages 14 to 18.
Weekly structure: A warm-up, a skill or strength block, a game or conditioning block, a cool-down, and a written reflection, with rest days built in.
How progress and hours are kept: the learner logs each session (date, minutes, activity, skills, effort). The parent prints a PE log for any date range. Growth is compared only with the learner's own earlier weeks.

The standard names are short paraphrases, not the official text. Matching a unit to a standard is our own judgment. The Utah match is approximate: Utah organizes its PE standards by grade and is revising them, so check the current text before you file.
