How does #PBL project-based learning work in #physed #pyppe? This booklet will show you another way to make #PE even more awesome. Explore the massive potential that lies with PBL in PE. #pegeeks @mrrobbo https://t.co/rsMCYm45lj

Finding a solid rhythm with @plickers , specifically @phys_educator 's version. We have 1 set for our four grade 3 #ibpyp #swimming classes. A quick and easy reflective tool for Ss after class before they head into the changerooms. Also a vital evidence gatherer for Ts records.

@jackie_becher @BCISonline Thanks, Jackie! It's been great collaborating with the ECC PE team! 😀

[David Cooney @21physed]

Super excited to try out our new #pyppe #PhysEd Invasion Games unit with Grade 5: #netball! Never had this at @BCISonline Elementary, so let's give it a go! I love the fast-paced passing in this game! The #powerPoint for this unit is free to download at https://t.co/CLvBh4vnTj.

My Masters is done and I focused on how project-based learning can be used in PE. This blog is a short summary of my findings and I hope it encourages people to try PBL in their classes.

#physed #pyppe #ibpyp 7 week lesson plan breakdown for a #grade5 Movement Composition unit that was collaborated with the #pyp #exhibition. Ss created a dance linked with their research topic. Check it out here. https://t.co/hUFL7AShAp

Our #grade3 #physed #pyppe Movement Composition unit with a focus on #gymnastics. Ss used analysis and evaluation #AtL skills as well as the #courageous learner profile to create their own performance. https://t.co/hO6wzBiy0D

Grade 4 #pyppe #physed #pyp Ss ran a great @BCISonline Warrior Fitness day. They ran #fitness tests and formed decisions on data gathered to design an exercise program for their client. G4 Ss were empowered w/ their learning as they trained G1-G10 students as well as adults! 🤩

[David Cooney @21physed]

Grade 5 #physed #pyppe Ss have begun their Movement Composition #passionprojects. Linked with their #pyp #exhibition topic Ss use the Creative Cycle to create a dance linked with their topic. This portfolio allows Ss to reflect on their #processoflearning. https://t.co/kTUNlQ6owr

@PEwithMrLee That’s an awesome layer to the game! I’m so glad you and your kids loved the game. 😃

[David Cooney @21physed]

An all-time favourite game for my #physed #pyppe Ss. Castle is a continuous game that is stacks of fun with loads of opportunities to layer up the challenge. Check out https://t.co/dt9Eyzluq7 to see how to play this game.

Grade 4 #physed #pyppe Ss demonstrating our second AtL of our #healthandfitness unit - interpersonal relationships. Ss were attentive, caring, and respectful trainers towards their clients by leading effective and thoughtful workouts based upon fitness test data.

[David Cooney @21physed]

Grade 3 #pyppe #physed Ss smashed their lesson. Using the Plan, Perform, Reflect cycle, Ss are on their way towards creating their individual #gymnastics performances. I love these types of lessons where I step back and let the Ss work their own magic. #facilitatoroflearning

[David Cooney @21physed]

Grade 4 #physed #pyppe using the Forming Decisions #AtL to draw conclusions on what their clients need to focus on. Ss analysed the data, cross-referenced it w/ testing data, and selected exercises from the #healthandfitness #powerpoint. @BCISonline warrior trainers in training!

[David Cooney @21physed]

@evernote is awesome! Goodbye #teacher binder and hello digital! My daily/weekly lesson plans are all in one spot. Class trackers are organised and easy to access. Everything syncs to this one account using any of your devices. #physed #pyppe teachers - highly recommend!

[David Cooney @21physed]

Just wrapped up a newly designed #healthandfitness unit for Grade 5 #physed #pyppe. Thanks to @LifeIsAthletic, @TyRiddick, @thepespecialist, and @iphys_ed for your PDs that helped me design this unit. My lesson plan for this unit can be seen at https://t.co/EUoXBFjmeZ

[David Cooney @21physed]

Loving @iPhys_Ed #PhysEdSummerCamp especially when kids are occupied and I’m at the 🏝. #relaxed @thepespecialist nailing the #physed hacks and @evernote making it easier to take notes when going mobile with new iOS update. #pegeek

Whew 😅 A few updates on the 21PE website! Technology page updated, home page cleaned up, new year plan uploaded, and since I love PowerPoints they had to have their own page (all organized into grade levels), among other updates. https://t.co/7siXZXKo5h #physed #pegeeks #pyppe

[David Cooney @21physed]

I just love how passionate and determined @BCISonline #physed #pyppe grade 5 Ss are. For 5 wks I’ve opened up the performing arts room so Ss can practice their performances during their recesses if they want. It looks like we have created our own dance studio! #giveopportunity

[David Cooney @21physed]

Ever since @ChantelleDianne mentioned to run a Ss committee w/ events I haven't looked back. The @BCISonline Warrior Fitness #physed event could not happen w/o these 8 incredible Ss. They did field setup design, t-shirts, emailed Ts, inventory, etc. #studentagency #empowerment
