Many PE teachers overtly teach sporting conduct including topics such as sportsmanship, gamesmanship and deviance. Furthermore, PE teachers often make reference to nuanced versions of these concepts such as fair play or etiquette and even types of deviance such as positive and negative deviance.

But then in the fall this year, I started doing live virtual classes as well as teaching in – person. Having PE three times a week for 30-45 minutes for the youngest grades would be ideal, because once-a-week makes it challenging to for them to retain skill-learning. . We had a virtual Field Day that went great.

I must say that every one of my articles were written as a result of an observation, some experience, some reading and connecting it to what I think I need to do better as a Physical Education (PE) teacher. Recently again, I ponder on the role of a Physical Literacy (PL) position to help in our understanding and role as PE teachers.

Often the arguments against physical education stem from games and sports being the primary focus of the class. When Cole Christopher first started teaching at MACCRAY 7 years ago, the weightlifting elective had only a handful of students. After 10th grade, physical education becomes an optional elective at MACCRAY.

This approach increases student engagement and fosters more organized and efficient teaching for you! I am a big believer in teaching through gameplay! Find games that incorporate your objective and teach it to your students. For instance, popular sports like soccer or basketball can make the lessons more engaging.

It is a real sinking feeling when a PE teacher attends a fixture and their squad is perceived as scruffy or ill-matching in terms of their kit.

This type of versus discussions puts many off almost immediately, especially those in teaching where everything is based on neat time-based structures.

The amount of administration to support teaching seems to have almost overwhelm actual direct teaching matters. Do we need more space and time to think of teaching and learning? It is space and time that comes with joy and satisfaction in teaching and learning for teachers. So recently, it has been crazy.

“It’s just sport!”. In my time teaching Physical Education, I have heard this saying (or variations of) more times than I would have liked. I have delivered workshops to general classroom teachers and spoken about the importance of PE – and seen many eyes roll. Is this still just sport? Is it still just sport ?

I have been lamenting on this for our practise for some time, i.e. how we introduce movement evaluation cues directly as teaching cues to our learners. This is an extremely popular way of teaching for many. This brings to the forefront for me the role of cognition and its influence on how we teach.

In many ways, I think teaching grades 3 – 6 are the most fun, and almost the most significant opportunity you have as PE teacher to establish physical literacy with your students. I feel happy if I can teach a student a game that will get him/her away from the screen or something they play with their friends on the weekend.

It is a combination of work stress, doubts about alignment of what I want with what it should it be like to be a Physical Education (PE) teacher, fatigue, etc. We add to this challenge by also wanting to be very specific with our teaching outcomes, e.g. values, affective, skills , etc. So on and on the thoughts swirl.

The big assumption I made here (not the best assumption for a holistic picture of PE but adequate for what I want to share here) is that skill acquisition is a big part of our job as PE teachers and it is necessary for us to think about it in order to do better. We are always tweaking them.
