Today I am sharing some fun and easy scooter activities for your PE classes. The first thing to mention is that sometimes I allow "Turbo Speed" and sometimes I do not. I refer to " Turbo Speed " as to when the student gets a running start (3-5 steps), then gets on their knees or belly. Getting a running start makes the scooter go faster, hence the name "Turbo Speed".

Physical Education and Physically Educate. Recently, a few encounters got me revisiting a few problematic themes for me. In a student-led and designed activity for a leadership programme, a group of student leaders introduced the touch-rugby pass as “you can only pass the ball backwards”. These are students who went through our Physical Education (PE) system and the cue/rule they used was a direct observable expectation of a pass which they conveyed without modification to their peers.

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.

The FA’s Four Corner Model can be a useful tool for coaches. But to use it effectively, we need to understand both its purpose and its limitations, and learn how to apply it in a way that supports our coaching without governing our approach. All coaches need guidance on how best to support their players, and the Four Corner Model can provide an excellent framework for session design and player development, provided we use it correctly.

I can't believe it's been almost a year since my last post. What a crazy year it has been with the Covid-19 pandemic. I'm so thankful that I've still been able to teach PE in person most of this school year. I recently had someone ask me, "What are your top 5 favorite games for PE?". I figured this would be a great blog post, so here goes! When the students walk into the gym and see these games set up, their eyes LIGHT UP with excitement!

The adaptable learning schedule is probably the biggest advantage an online school has to offer to a student-athlete. With the flexibility and freedom to create a personal learning timetable, young athletes get enough time for sports activities and education. This convenience helps them achieve excellent results in both fields and secure their future.

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.

In a number of ways the quest to return to sport after suffering ACL injury has all the hallmarks of a classical hero’s journey. The hero of the story faces a long and arduous journey to get back onto their feet after the original injury and then the daunting challenge of attempting to return to participating in the sport - and from there the epic-length saga continues as they must first survive the initial period after their return and then strive to get back to their best thereafter.

Sport is dynamic and complex play. Both skill acquisition theory (e.g. ecological dynamics) and education theories (e.g. constructivism and complex learning) relevant to sport coaching have been used to suggest that it is preferable to retain the logic of play by simplifying the representation of the game as the focus if not the majority of the learning to play experience, especially with novices.

Many coaches wonder about the best way to allocate playing time within their team. But when deciding whether to give kids equal playing time in youth soccer, there is no blanket rule. Factors like the environment we’re coaching in, the individual needs of our players, and what we’re trying to achieve as a team will all impact our approach. To establish the best course of action for our team, we should consider the various impacts of how we allocate playing time, as well as how.

Last year, PE teachers designed physical activities tracker/log in PhysednHealth to encourage students to log their activities weekly… Then in January, it happened! Students continued to use the activities tracker even when school was out, on break, or nobody was checking. . It worked (not surprised)!!! . Students were able to link every day’s unstructured physical activity (helping dad remove the snow) to PE. .
