I am so happy to share videos of our Jump Rope performance from the Jump Rope for Heart assembly yesterday. My students did a terrific job! I am so proud of their hard work! This performance has become a fun tradition at our school. I wrote this routine a few years ago, and we perform it to the song "Jump" by Van Halen. In the fall, my students all practice jump rope skills in PE class.

In this Live Session, Dave Wright demonstrates a simple warm up practice that includes ball work, dynamic stretching and multi-directional movement. The structure of the warm up can be adapted easily by changing the space or introducing technical challenges like different types of passes, receiving skills, dribbling and communication. Elements such as combinations, one twos and pressing can all be introduced as players get more familiar with this type of warm up exercise.

Motivating students to develop a life-long love of healthy movement and physical activity is just one of several unique challenges for PE educators. One opportunity to engage students in a unique and challenging lesson plan is to create an obstacle course. A class period full of agility and skill-building movements can be fun and an adventurous change of pace.

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

As priorities change, for many, physical activity and a healthy lifestyle can fall to the wayside. As an adult influence on students’ experience with health and fitness, physical education teachers can play a key role in encouraging students to make movement a priority throughout their lives.
