I'm looking for any kind of free, online resourse for short movement activities for elementary students, something for a quick break during the school day. Videos, music files or powerpoints that I could display on the projector would be awesome. Does anyone know where I can find something like this?
Due to budget cuts and the loss of one teacher, we are now forced to plan for classes of 40+ per class, up to 120 kids in the gym at a time. Coping with outside activities, worried about rainy days. Any ideas for large numbers, especially 8th grade, more inner city kids?
What I've found effective is to use games like capture the flag where there is more than one target(eg. four team ctf) to allow everyone to keep moving.
If you are doing team games try to implement my favorite method of thinning the gym, whenever someone passes or shoots the ball(or other implement) then have them run back to their side's backwall. This little trick tires out those who will become hyper-involved and tends to give everyone a chance to get something out of the class as the highly athletic students tire out

Hello. I have a B.S. in Phys. Ed. Teacher Ed K-12. I am looking to go back to school and get my master's degree in adapted P.E. and/or Pedagogy. I would really like to go through an internship program through a private school or through the college itself. Any suggestions??? Thanks!
Well, it might be a good idea to find out what religion the child/parents are, and then form a gameplan around that. Maybe the child can do a special dance or reading as a solo, or something similar.

OK, way late but for the future? Send her to the library and let her do a little research on the history of dance or related topic. Our entire district had to take a 12 week course in "reading in the content area" which would fit this bill. I have a real problem with 1 student altering the plans and enjoyment of an entire class!
My name is Ben Fatherree and I'm the inventor of a fun, fast-paced sport played at middle schools, high schools and universities across the country.
Its been played as far away as the jungles of Ecuador!
It's called HANTIS and it's revolutionizing PE Class by incorporating the exciting elements of volleyball, basketball, and table tennis into an easy-to- learn, easy-to-play, low cost sport.
It is perfect for your P.E. class.
What others had to say:
"Ben, My name is Andy Schneider and I teach PE/Health at South Valley Middle School in Liberty MO (Kansas City suburb). I have spent the past two days introducing HANTIS to my 7th grade PE class. The game is catching on like wildfire. I have never seen the students gravitate to anything as fast as they have to this game. I think that our broadcasting classes are about to do a feature story on the game." Andy S. - South Valley Middle School - Liberty, MO
"I can definitely say that it will be a staple in my class, as I am going to introduce it to my Basic P.E. class tomorrow. As we played, many other students gathered around and there was a buzz as they asked what we were doing." Mike S. - Canfield High School - Canfield, OH
