Over the last decade, young people have begun spending drastically more time engaging with media, particularly digital media. This often exposes them to content and influences far beyond their maturity levels. The messages, images and information they engage with every day through media help shape their beliefs, attitudes, values, and identity. That’s why it’s so important to empower young people with the skills to recognize the shaping effects of media.

Even radiology exams with carefully minimized radiation still entail some radiation, so they aren’t completely risk-free—especially when it comes to kids. That’s why Shreyas Vasanawala, MD, PhD , radiologist in chief at Stanford Medicine Children’s Health and the William R.

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.

Field Day is my favorite time of the year; however, organizing and implementing a quality Field Day can be daunting. There are several logistical points that need to be figured out such as: the daily schedule, need for parent volunteers, other staff responsibilities, the number of grade levels involved at a time, and the most important, the theme of the event.

An Olympic year is always a special time for an elementary PE teacher. We are seeing the Olympic Games through the eyes of a child, who have probably not seen the games before or were too little to remember them. To think that this is potentially the first Olympics they will remember is an incredible opportunity to tie in our learning standards with the games.

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.

Being a student athlete is the highlight of school for many teenagers. For some, it’s the game-winning goal they’ll never forget or the many hours they get to spend having fun and practicing with their teammates and friends. And the benefits couldn’t be better — participation in sports can improve academic achievement and overall self-esteem, and athletes are more likely to engage in health-promoting behaviors than their non-athlete peers.
