As an advocate for BOTH Physical Education and Athletics, I am very disappointed in some of our legislators in my state on the following proposed bill. Physical Education & Athletics are two separate entities! #physed bit.ly/4jTR7Wq

Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer has referred to his @USFCougarsFB coach Bob Young as a HUGE influence on his success. DeBoer (WR) & best friend Kurtiss Riggs (QB) tell Bob stories while you watch their highlights from '96 nat'l title. FULL CHAT > siouxfallslive.com/podcasts/… #RollTide

As some might be considering items to post in and around your gym for next year, I thought it might be a good time to share the Physical Literacy Rope, once again. Full color for digital use & white for printing. docs.google.com/presentation… Location: cbhpe.org/templates #PhysEd

Oh. My. Word. How simple. And cheap. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #physed
Make a multi-level, multi-purpose PE equipment cart! Use plastic shelving that is easy to put together rather than PVC and use attachments such as clamps and bungee cords. Make it mobile by attaching dollies at the bottom. #physed

3 Different types of impossible shots for your students to try and make! Ball toss, flying disc shot, to the cone flip shot — my nemesis! Providing student choice while rewarding positive behavior… 🤷‍♂️ Which one would you pick to try? #physed

Frisbee Pop-It: youtu.be/Xq9Ucm-XFpg I was inspired by @PhysEdReview & @TynerTyners activities shared on X! Amazing educators, check them out! This frisbee throwing game can easily be adapted for younger & older students. #mhepe #risdweareone #physed #4ranches1family

Anytime I can squeeze in some math or literacy I will. Bonus is when it’s a big hit and they don’t even complain about doing “school work”. Easter Egg Math Dash was a frisbee throwing success. As I always tell them, we work our brains & body in this class! #mhepe #risddreambig #physed #risdmoves youtu.be/aPoHlGdanZ4
