Carly's P.E. Games

MAY 16, 2021

I can't believe it's been almost a year since my last post. What a crazy year it has been with the Covid-19 pandemic. I'm so thankful that I've still been able to teach PE in person most of this school year. I recently had someone ask me, "What are your top 5 favorite games for PE?". I figured this would be a great blog post, so here goes! When the students walk into the gym and see these games set up, their eyes LIGHT UP with excitement!

Learning Through Sport

MAY 18, 2021

Sport is dynamic and complex play. Both skill acquisition theory (e.g. ecological dynamics) and education theories (e.g. constructivism and complex learning) relevant to sport coaching have been used to suggest that it is preferable to retain the logic of play by simplifying the representation of the game as the focus if not the majority of the learning to play experience, especially with novices.

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.

It’s easy to choose your child’s friends when they are little because you are in total control of their schedule and who they spend time with. But as your kids get older, they start choosing their own friend groups. If your kids struggle to make friends, you may be grateful that they’ve connected with some. Read More.

Informed Practitioner in Sport

MAY 21, 2021

In a number of ways the quest to return to sport after suffering ACL injury has all the hallmarks of a classical hero’s journey. The hero of the story faces a long and arduous journey to get back onto their feet after the original injury and then the daunting challenge of attempting to return to participating in the sport - and from there the epic-length saga continues as they must first survive the initial period after their return and then strive to get back to their best thereafter.

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.
