In this time of uncertainty it is so important that even though students may not be physically coming to PE class, that they stay active! Physical activity is important for all ages, but can especially help students succeed in their other classes. Health + PE are essential!

Some of these statistics are very eye opening and most definitely not what we hope to see when looking to become a health and physical education teacher. Make physical education a priority! shapeamerica.org//advocacy/son/…

The first GV HPE Club social event was a success! A big thank you to everyone who came. Make sure to keep checking our activity sheet and your emails for opportunities to attend our social events!! @ Aman Park instagram.com/p/CE-CNvVj8xL/…

It is so important as a friend, parent, educator, coach, or even stranger to check in on one another. It cost nothing to be nice and a simple, “Hey, are you okay?” has the ability to change someone’s life! #WSPD

Just a friendly reminder to oppose the large misconception of what it means to be healthy!

Here’s a fun little activity to remind everyone, in the midst of COVID-19 craziness, to take care of your mental health too 🧠❤️

There is always more to learn about current social justice issues. Keep educating yourself with great resources like this!

It can be easy to get caught up in in trying to make the perfect lesson plan, but I think the most important thing to remember is to keep it fun! Help students learn to enjoy being active :)

While trying to learn about technology in a PE setting, I was having a hard time thinking of ways it could possibly be good for students until I came across this! Always remember to keep an open mind 😁 SAMR in 120 Seconds youtu.be/us0w823KY0g via YouTube

Here is another great example of how and why technology is important in physical education!

Never force yourself to participate in physical activities you don’t enjoy just to get your physical activity in for the day! Be active, but in the things you love!! Don’t go for runs if you don’t enjoy them, maybe go for a walk or go fishing. Find what YOU enjoy and do it!

It is important to recognize and to understand our personal beliefs, values and biases. Knowing ourselves first is crucial when trying to help others, especially in education⭐️

One of my professors brought up an amazing point about assessment in PE and why grading students based on their clothing is not appropriate. She said, “So if you forget your calculator for math one day, do you receive an automatic zero?” Let that sink in. @IJ_PEProf

I was able to learn so much today about my future profession from some truly amazing teachers. What some of them are doing simply for the love of their students inspired me immensely. They reassured me that I am in the best career. Thank you SHAPE Michigan

I am so glad that I was able to learn various new ways to assess students in HPE and cannot wait to implement them into my own classroom some day!
