. The impact of COVID on school nursing is not yet fully realized, but what we do know is there are many open positions. The fall of 2022 looks rather bleak for some school districts. I have been on the faculty of Rutgers University – Camden School of Nursing for more than a decade. One of my roles is clinical coordinator, placing our students in practicum experiences with certified school nurses across the state.

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.

This was a great way of rethinking our curriculum. drowningintheshallow. I dislike the guiding principles of ‘ broad ‘ and ‘ balanced ‘ when it comes to thinking about the PE curriculum and the selection of activities and sports within it. They are vague, they don’t help the design process and they don’t really apply to an individual subject but to a school curriculum (for a nice critical perspective read Colin Richard’s Impact magazine article Broad?

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.

A personal account of ACL recovery, day 3 In my mind, after the ACL surgery I imagined myself working out to recover like Rocky training to fight Ivan Drago or like Bo Cruz in Hustle. I’d be running up hills, squatting with weights, doing box jumps… Not even close- not yet anyway. I’m on day 3 post-surgery. My knee is still almost the size of my head, I’ve probably walked a combined 500 steps over the last 4 days and my “exercise” consists of lying on my back and squeezing my glutes or quads.
