Martínez & Calderón 2011). Prichard and McCollum (2009) explained the benefits combining SEM and TGA. Students can have more opportunity to learn sports by engaging in sports with prolonged time periods (seasons) instead of general PE unit (Sidentop, 2002). The SEM provides students opportunities to experience several different roles in a rotation like that of a coach, official and player. As a team, students have the specific roles such as captain, recorder, facilitator. Also, all the team members are required to share information such as progression of their teams through team journals. As described by Prichard & McCollum (2009), physical educators can combine these two approaches so that students can demonstrate their tactical understanding about sports by participating in PE with an increased level of excitement. Once students are familiar to the routine and lesson format of TGA (initial game playing – answer and question time - practice task - game playing) - they diminished off-task-time, and transition (Gubacs-Collins & Olsen, 2010). Furthermore, combining TGA with SEM enable teachers to reduce the pressure about class management and additional instructional time devotion (Gubacs Collins & Olsen, 2010). Especially, beginning in-service teachers can benefit more in that they are still developing their content knowledge more in depth as well as pedagogical content knowledge (Gubacs-Collins & Olsen, 2010). Conclusion There are diverse pedagogical practices and curriculum models to teach students in PE classes. Students will have different understanding and skill level in performing sports. Tactical Games Approach (TGA) is centered on tactical awareness which promote understanding in the context of gamy playing for students and research continuously reported the effectiveness of TGA to teach sports in PE across elementary to secondary level children. TGA is evidence-based curriculum and effective tool to instruct sports and game playing in PE for students. This paper summarized the basic components and framework of TGA, research evidence in relation to utilize TGA and then discussed several ideas to use TGA more practically. References Almond, L.
