Physical Education Update

JANUARY 8, 2023

I see it happen every year – school officials scheduling their graduation ceremonies on the same evening as major sports championships. This year, for example, a local high school has scheduled its grad on the same Friday evening as the provincial soccer and track championships. Is it done on purpose? I don’t believe so – when the plans are made in the Fall, school athletics are simply not considered.

Montessori Physical Education

JANUARY 8, 2023

Today’s blog is a little shorter because I am putting the final touches to my presentation next week at the WMA Celebrating Our Montessori Children 2023 conference. However, I had to share a cool year-in-review that TPT (Teachers Pay Teachers) shared about my store. A big thank you to everyone who supports my work on TPT! Hope to you see at the WMA conference in Lacrosse, Wisconsin next weekend!

The headline has haunted me all weekend. I cannot stop thinking about this unimaginable scenario. A six-year-old child is angry and dysregulated, has access to an unlocked and loaded firearm, and brings it to school. This is not a far-flung script for a crime show, this is real life and it happened this past Friday at an elementary school in Newport News, Virginia. .

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.
