How to "BE" in PE!

2015-2016 Health, Physical Education, and Dance! Starting another year with building Living Skills and making Phys-Ed meaningful through questioning and active learning, active sharing, and active living.

LET'S BE...IN P.E.!

My thought this year after my first day with my students (K-8) was what kind of teacher do they want me to BE! I wanted to build on the relationships developed last year and further support a community of safety and trust. I hope to continue to develop students perseverance/confidence to learn skills and strategies and improve their critical thinking (inquiry, here we go!!!). I want my students to BE critical thinkers and know why we are doing what we are doing and they can tell and show the why, what, how...

5 WONDER WALL THOUGHTS AND QUESTIONS IN P.E. AT THE START OF THE YEAR:
1. What kind of teacher do you want me to BE in PE?
2. What kind of student do you want to BE in PE?
3. What do you want to learn in PE?
4. Phys-Ed is important because _____________________.
5. How do you feel about Phys-Ed? Love😀, Like😊, It's Ok,I have to do it😐

Let'sGet Our Students Thinking!

Student need during this unit: understand what a SKILL is and how to think STRATEGICALLY.

Skills Posted and a Star Placed when a skill was discussed and/ or broken down.

Feeling Fit: Monitoring Intensity Levels

 

P.A.C.E. Model for Self-Monitoring Cardiorespiratory Endurance

 

Students ran in the Terry Fox Run but also the 12 Minute Run.  Junior/Intermediate students monitored how hard they were working using the P.A.C.E. Model that I came up with above. Students found their OWN pace that allowed them to move at a continuous pace with a partner.  The monitored their PACE using the talk test and breath sound check.

 

Rate of Perceived Exertion: Primary-Junior

Junior-Intermediate Students participated in the Beep Test where they will then decide what distance will allow them to gradually increase intensity.  They will decide on the distance to run - 10 metres, 15 metres, or 20 metres.

Positive Attitude in PE

Love this poster I found on Pinterest! Great visual to reinforce that Physical Education works, the body, brain, and being!  Just changed the words to fit PE.

We just finished our cooperative games unit and had the students "T.A.G." another during our team games to get them thinking about interpersonal skills (cooperation, team work, fair play) and personal skills (monitoring self (i.e., stop, start on a signal, safe participation following simple game rules, safely staying in set boundaries))...etc.

Cooperative Games: Getting to know my students at my new school, Dr. Davey in Hamilton, Ontario. 

Exit Card: T.A.G. and Evaluate enjoyment level

Students selected the team games they enjoyed them most...love bingo dabblers for quick assessments!
