Abstract

The aim of this study is to show how athletics has been taught in physical education classes in elementary school, in the opinion of athletics student practitioners. Data were collected through a questionnaire, applied to 20 athletics practitioners enrolled in the final years of elementary school. The main results showed that the majority of the sample has athletics as content in their classes and affirms that they develop primarily in courts, with the use of equipment such as ropes, balls, cones and mattresses and teaching focus on running. They believe that the provision of more material resources can improve this teaching. These results demonstrate that, although the teaching of this sports are not totally scattered in their schools, teachers who teach them have the ability to realize that athletics scholar teaching is possible through adaptations.
