Book Descriptions:

Teachers no longer have to adapt standard physical fitness tests to accommodate students with special needs. The all-new Brockport Physical Fitness Test (BPFT) is specifically designed to test the fitness of youths from ages 10 through 17 that have various disabilities. The manual and related materials provide teachers with everything they need to know to easily administer the test.

Years in preparation, the Brockport Test was developed through Project Target, a research study funded by the U.S. Department of Education and designed to develop a health-related, criterion-referenced physical fitness test. The Brockport Test compares scores to carefully researched and developed health standards, rather than to national averages. This way, the test administrator knows with certainty when a child meets the minimum recommendation for being fit on each test item.

The Brockport Physical Fitness Test resources are as a kit or separately. See "Related Products" to the right for ordering information about separate components.
