The physical
arrangement probably had a negative affect on learning/teaching because the gym
itself was very small space and not suited to breaking the class up into smaller
groups in order to work on skills and tactical aspects. I don’t believe that
the environment of a gym did reflect the teacher’s beliefs and values about
teaching and learning. The teacher is unable to change the size and setup of the
gym, I’m sure if he had input during the construction of the gym he might have
trying to change things. The teacher was able to change the aspects of the games
they played in order to suit the environment.
