Hey Matt,
I just got a job teaching PE. Before that, I worked for a company that taught soccer and basketball classes, leagues and clinics for mostly elementary aged athletes.
It was a lot of fun, and I taught a lot of basketball. I grew up playing basketball, plus my boss demonstrated tons of drills and exercises, etc, that I used in my classes and coaching. For soccer, which I'm relatively newer, I ended up going on youtube to find drills and exercises and then TRYING THEM MYSELF, before I'd use them in classes.
There's tons of stuff on youtube. You can check out the company I worked for's youtube channel. They re One on One Basketball.
If youknow hoops well you should do fine, if not, definitely spend some time on youtube looking at different drills and the like (dribbling, passing, proper shooting, 2 on 2, 3 on 3 games, etc.) and HAVE FUN
Hi I just started my national board certification and recieved my portfolio materials in the mail. Are there any other PE teachers who have recently finished the process or are doing it now. I would love to chat and form a "study group". my email is [email removed]
I just got a job teaching PE at a small private elementary school. I've worked in PE and athletics for a while and teaching. My management is tight, I relate well with kids, staff and parents and I am good at assessment.
My administrator put me in charge of developing the PE program, meaning the curriculum. I am excited but nervous. I am very interested in "New PE" which emphasizes fitness and individuals doing activities they find rewarding over competition.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a curriculum program/guide for elementary PE, particularly New PE. I am looking into SPARK. Anyone have experiences with that program?

I brought it home for the week end. We used the 3-5 last year and it's great!! You can find games and activities when you Google for them. We find good ones all the time on line. I'll try to find a way to send some of the games we use to you. Patt
The U.S. Tennis Association is fighting back against childhood obesity, which affects one in three children, encouraging kids to get active. Actress Christine Taylor and celebrity trainer Bob Harper speak about the campaign and 1,000 free play days for kids during the month of September at youtennis.com
This is a great idea to get young students into the sport of tennis and to help loose weight. Obesity is becoming a big problem in America today and anyway to help and try to fight it is great.
I like the idea, anything that can keep kids off the couch and up moving is a step in the right direction. Obesity is a huge problem in America today and its getting worse. We need to do all we can to try and stop it.
I am studying to become a teacher and was never quite interesting physical education. I was wondering what everyone's suggestions would be to help me get more interested. I want to be able to relate to my students on both sides, if need be I have to teach Physical Education.

Teachers want to teach for all different reasons and interests. I have wanted to be a Physical Educator since I was young, inspired by my previous Phys. Ed. Teacher. I was never good at math as a child. Observing in the Elementary School in the Gymnasium some of the games incorporated math. Those particular games, of course I would not have an interest because I particularly like math. You must always stay positive and think of ways to work around it. For example, you could do backround checks on certain activities prior to your activity. If you had to teach a lesson about Soccer, you can look up the history of soccer and fun facts about the past of Soccer that you did not know beforehand that can make you more interested that can effect your teaching in a positive way.
Do you want to save your country? Do you want to save lives? Of course not every physical education is what it should be but if it is know when you walk, run, play volleyball or whatever you do in phys. ed. - know you're taking a step toward maintaining your health and for the rest of your life. The more exericse you get in life, the less likely you are to get cancer, the less likely you are to get heart disease and diabetes type 2 and you're also increasing the chances that you won't succumb to Alzheimer's in your old age - as so many are doing now.
And - the less likely you are to be depressed - a lack of physical activity correlates with depression.
Does any of that interest you? It might not and I kindly understand that because at your age, you're likely to think that you'll live forever. When I was your age, I never thought about taking care of myself and taking care of my health.
But what about your country? Are you the least bit patriotic? Are you aware that your country is being bankrupted by the costs of America's ill health that derive from Americans not eating properly and keeping active. > > > Teachers want to teach for all different reasons and > interests.

"I am always looking for new ideas for children to learn and have fun. I believe that I found BOTH options in a new product, called Obstacle House. Obstacle House’s target audience is preschool-aged children, ages 3 -6, who are in the midst of developing coordination and agility. However, after recently seeing this product in action I believe it is so much more!"

Ashley BroweThis is a neat idea and it wouldn't be too hard to replicate into a diy project. What I love about this is that you could easily bring it into the classroom and use it as a game for math, like suggested in the article, but you could do spelling and so much more. I definitely have to look into this for later!
It all depends on the level of visual impairment. One way to teach a visually impaired student to run around the track is to have a rope in between you that way you can guide them. Also, you could get raised pictures of the stages of running, sprinting, and jogging that way they can picture the motions in their own minds.
There are many techniques you can use to teach a visually impaired student with no vision how to run, sprint and jog around a track. Some of which are the Guidewire System,sighted guide, and caller. A guidewire system can be set up on a track or in a gym. The rope must be pulled and attached to an eyehook in a gym or to short poles outside. There must be a warning knot at least 2 ft from the end of the rope and a difference in floor texture so the child does not run into the wall or the end of the poles. As for the sighted guide technique, the child holds the guide runner's elbow or can hold onto the runner's shoulder or even hold hands to his/her partner. Using the, "caller," technique the runner who is blind runs toward a voice. The caller can stand at the other end of the gymnasium or track for a short run or for distances can run behind, beside, or in front of the runner holding a bell, keys, or using verbal instruction.
