When you hear “exercise snacks,” you might think of a protein bar or a piece of fruit. But it’s not about what you eat; it’s an approach to fitness for people on the go. In 2023, consider incorporating these short bursts of activity into your daily routine to help achieve the recommended 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week. “Exercise snacks” serve as reminders to get up and move regularly.

This post is a reminder to myself of the gap: A reminder that the field of PE is a messy and misunderstood one and where radical reform and ideals will ultimately fail when that messiness is not understood. A reminder that PE pre-service teachers already come with strong values and ideas about the subject.

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.

FiT Work #2 - Bicycle Safety (SY23-24) Recently there has been an increase in cases of teenagers hit by cars while walking or riding their bicycles. Sometimes this happens even though they are in a pedestrian crosswalk. In fact, some Russell students have been hit by cars when crossing Escuela Parkway right in front of the school. Therefore, it is a good idea to occasionally review safety rules such as those established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

“Prepare for battle at the plate, be mentally and physically sound to succeed.” Even without a history of military service, my father loved to incorporate military doctrine into my athletic training. “The only easy day was yesterday,” he would tell me during softball practices.

Basketball is one of my favorite sports. I was able to learn the fundamentals from some amazing coaches over my time in middle school and high school. Ball handling was not something that came natural to me as a player. I remember spending long periods of time in middle school working on developing my ability to dribble with my left hand and changing directions.

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.
