One was from Mom’s Demand Action thanking me for speaking at a recent rally. One was from Jeanne Kiefner, a school nursing treasure who will be our forever “Head Nurse,” thanking me for spending time together during our recent NASN conference.

Sometimes the equipment makes the game. That’s the case with Bubble Soccer, a soccer variation in which players wear inflatable bubble-wrap balls. It turns them into giant, bouncy sumo wrestlers. Aside from the no-contact rule (contact is actually encouraged), the regular rules of soccer apply. Here’s a video of a bubble soccer game. And here’s how to celebrate a goal.

At times over the years, assessments and tests have mistakenly become interchangeable words in the world of education. In this article, we set out to better define assessments in physical education and how they can be utilized to empower student learning and provide better teacher insights. Let’s first start with making sure we set the record straight on our terminology.

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.

Q&A is one of the most fundamental skills of a classroom-based PE teacher. I believe that asking questions should have the following, and only the following purposes: to cause the maximum new learning possible; to encourage the maximum adaptation of previously learned knowledge/skill; to increase the decoding rate of previously learned knowledge/skill by the maximum amount possible.

One of my all-time favourite sports movies is “Happy Gilmore,” in which an ex-hockey player, played by Adam Sandler, takes up golf and uses a driving technique that is half golf drive and half hockey slapshot. It’s a technique that’s unlikely to be effective. Or is it? In fact, Fox Sport Network’s “Sport Science” studied Happy Gilmore’s technique to see if it could actually yield more driving yards.

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.

Let me start this confession by saying that I have never really enjoyed running. From the variety of sports I played as a youth, I always figured out how to be good while not having to run too much. I was the finest defensive sweeper in my AYSO soccer league. Relying on short sprints and a strong leg to blast the ball down the field, I was never out of breath during a game.

They enable us to engage our players from the moment they get to training, provide valuable opportunities for building connections, and can give us time to set up our upcoming practice(s). But what constitutes an arrival activity? And how can we successfully implement them? Below, we discuss the fundamentals of arrival activities, and how to use them in our sessions.

For centuries, kids have been bribing their siblings to help them with one thing or another. You can imagine kids of every language, race, gender and century, asking their sibling that ever-important question: “What’s in it for me?” It’s not that they probably won’t help… eventually. But the chance of engagement is much higher if there’s something to be gained.

When every school across the country went remote in March of 2020, there was a collective spirit around the benefits of physical activity for students. We celebrated the ingenuity of physical education teachers and students to find creative ways to workout at home. And we championed this initiative with curriculum, technology, and resources. We did so, because we knew that exercise’s mental and physical benefits were essential for students’ well-being while living through a pandemic.
