Determine which is the LEAST example of fair play in the physical education classroom.

• A. Playing hard to win and playing safely
• B. Quitting if you are losing so somebody else can take your place
• C. Not quitting even if you are losing
• D. Taking turns while trying hard to win

Answer: (B)

In fair play, students compete with effort and respect for rules and others, showing perseverance, safety, and equitable participation. Quitting because you’re losing so someone else can take your place undermines that spirit. It avoids the challenge, robs you of personal growth, and denies equal opportunities for participation. The other behaviors align with fair play: giving your best effort even when behind, not quitting, and taking turns while still trying to win all show respect for the game, your peers, and the learning environment. So the option describing quitting to let someone else take your place is the least example of fair play.
