In a prevous blog here I began to look at concept based curriculum model for physical education as an alternative to a multi-activity curriculum model. A multi-activity curriculum model typically has short 3-to-5-week duration units of work. In this curriculum design there is insufficient time for the volume of practice required through deliberate play and practice to master technical and tactical skills of an activity to the level where a student previously not playing the sport can reach at le

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.

When a physical education teacher can’t be in class, whether due to illness, professional development, or personal matters, the show must go on. Effective PE sub plans are essential to ensure that students continue to engage in meaningful physical activity no matter who is leading the class. Well-thought-out PE sub plans not only help maintain the flow of the class but also ensure that students stay active, motivated, and safe, even in the PE teachers absence.

One of the things I enjoy most in Physical Education is being able to find and create activities that have the students active the entire time and not realize it. I find that when there is just a lot of running, some students get super tired quickly or lose interest even faster. I created a unit in my curriculum solely to do aerobics games and one of those activities is Aerobic Bowling from SPARK.

In college, I was a dual major focusing on athletic training and physical education. Teaching PE was my back-up plan. That all changed during my preservice program, which included one adapted PE class. After a day of instruction and a student with special needs who never left my side I recognized that teaching was my calling. I developed a soft spot for students who needed a little extra support that would stay with me throughout my 23 years as an educator.

The same is true for physical education teachers. As educators, we need to have the equipment ready to address the foreseeable needs of our students.
