ABSTRACT
This chapter examines an alternative to the ways of thinking that conceptualises physical education within movement culture. It explores the potential of position to secure a coherent position of integration for physical education and sport. The chapter reveals how movement culture draws from Deweydian thinking about knowledge construction. Movement culture becomes a potentially valuable position from which to reconsider subject matter and pedagogy within primary physical education. The chapter considers learning in primary physical education in a similar way to learning within an occupation. Education via occupation is concerned with education for ways of being that are significant for and genuine to young people in the here and now of their immediate existence. The chapter illustrates how a practical embodied approach can help our insight into the many different directions of experiences that can be taken within primary physical education.
