I have always felt that Health and PE are extremely important subjects that we must stress in schools. We have to get our young people moving, eating properly and showing them how to have healthy lives.
I have pages of links to sites to help you with your classes.
I am a K-5 Curriculum Coach helping a new K-5 PE teacher I would like to see lesson plans, how you lay out objectives, EQ's etc. or any sites or class sites that may help him.

Look at PEcentral, Naspe Sportime, PElinks4U. Any of those sites would be a great resource!!!
I am trying to inquire of any individuals who sat for the last Praxis II exam (September 12). The exam (without notice) was changed (format, outline, content). Did anyone witness this change? If Praxis did not publish the format change, is there anything I can do about this? I have called ETS and of course I am getting the run-around.
There are several programs out there that do use your smart boards or internet for the lessons. Speedstacking has a cd to plug in so the entire class can be doing the same activity at the same time. DDR is an excellent tool-I have seen it but our district cannot afford it (dance, dance, revolution).
Kidshealth.org has some very well done video segments on their web site if you are teaching health.

I am teaching 7th and 8th grade gym this year, and I'm in a pretty small gym (we don't have an outside area.) My resources are very limited: a few small sponge balls, a couple rubber balls, a few volleyballs (but no net), a few basketballs (maybe one has air), and some frisbee disks things. I don't have money to go out and buy equipment, nor will my school reimburse me if I did. All that said, the kids are pretty bored with the stuff we've been doing...like knock-out, running, and kickball. I need some new ideas that they will not groan about.
Also, if you have any tips on grading gym, please share! Thanks so much!

a. If you have walls---play 'wall ball' using taped off area on one wall with same area taped off on floor (use chalk), use a bouncy ball and it is like playing one wall racquetball. Underhand serve to hit wall without bouncing, ball must bounce once on floor within the square on the floor. Two students can play against one another---learning 'kill shots, determine if ball in on line or not (could have another student monitor the play and keep score). Play by time or points---time is better.
b. get book called Silver Bullets--a lot of games for small spaces.
c. set up fitness circuit using the equipment you have, add line jumping like coaches use---give students paper to record the number of times they do whatever you ask in 30 sec. time., then rotate.
d. set up contest with 4 or 5 on a team. Have other teams count and record---using the fitness circuit.
e. give students some equipment and develop a routine using the equipment---each person has to do the routine. Show to rest of class.
f. use clothesline and crepe paper--make nets, use tennis balls and play hand tennis---teaching scoring and eye-hand coordination.
