Reinventing the Game

AUGUST 27, 2021

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? Many a times we unfairly relegate our efforts to merely ensuring physical fitness and the teaching of X number of games.

As I teach less towards year-end, administrative work pile up, thoughts become preoccupied with non-direct teaching matters. It was clear that reflective mood is directly proportional to how much on-the-ground teaching and observation is happening, at least for me.

Learning Through Sport

JANUARY 30, 2021

While I see many teachers and coaches have adopted elements of game-based play with purpose to develop general game skills and sport specific movement skills, what I still mainly see is what is often called a “traditional” physical education (PE) method. Involving students/players in game play is not the end of the story.
