When the main focus of the teaching unit is Teamwork and Collaboration for Middle School, what games and activities are a MUST? @ElemPE1 @clos_gm @CoachPat1984 @StaceGriffo868 @MrJaceFerguson @pe4everykid @MikeMorrisPE #PhysEd #HealthyStudents

Back at my second home after the Easter Break. This is the place where I spend lots of hours trying my best to motivate young students to exercise in a conscious manner and to learn new exciting and fun ways to become physically literate. Happy to plant my little seeds everyday.

In a recent PE lesson, Middle School Classes were challenged to complete an #orienteering race. This video shows how this sport is a different way to exercise endurance, navigation and observational skills. #Athletics #MiddleSchoolatASV

The Understanding by Design framework pivots the #ASVCurriculum towards the demonstration of students’ learning. Here is the recent work session held by the Athletic Department to design new units for the Middle School and High School PE courses. Have a nice week! #MondayPicture

No puedo estar más de acuerdo. Cursé mis estudios universitarios en EE.UU. y en cada asignatura tenía, como mínimo, una presentación. La expresión oral tiene que ser una competencia esencial en cualquier asignatura. Y las entrevistas de trabajo? Y las relaciones sociales?

[DAVID HORTIGÜELA @dhortiguela1]

La expresión oral, como uno de los indicadores fundamentales de la competencia lingüística, ha de ser un eje de trabajo transversal, e IMPRESCINDIBLE, en todo sistema educativo. Luego vienen los problemas, y serios, en defensas de TFG, TFM, oposiciones...

@missf_pe [email protected] Thank you so much!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Remind your students to be thankful for being part of the educational community and all the amazing learning opportunities available. #asvtweets #WeAreASV #TeachAndLearn #TeachingWithPurpose

I could NOT agree more! Adults, teenagers, and children need physical activity for their overall well being (physical, psychological, emotional, and social). #PhysEd #physicalactivity #ConsejoCOLEF

‼️Las medidas que se están tomando limitando la prestación de servicios de EF, AF y deporte durante la pandemia están teniendo consecuencias en la salud de la ciudadanía.

👉Solicitamos que la prestación de estos servicios se reconozca como actividad esencial.

The Calm Before The Storm... Clear goals, proper planning, active activities, positive attitude, visualization of a great lesson before the start, excellent facilities, engaging and proactive students, and fun exercises are key ingredients for a successful learning environment.

Qué curioso, actualmente, en momentos en los que el país se encuentra en su situación más crítica, son la educación y la sanidad los pilares que lo sustentan. Que sirva esto para que nadie NUNCA dude de que son los dos pilares básicos de la sociedad #educaciónysanidadnosetocan

[Jordi Ballester @Coach_Ballester]

Now more than ever us educators have to be the role models for our students. Stay calm, explain the new rules clearly, but above all, show a positive attitude towards them. They need us and we need them too. We can do this, TOGETHER. #TheASVDifference #TheASVWay

[Jordi Ballester @Coach_Ballester]

Thank you for showing the world that creativity is not the opposite of discipline and control, and that the arts are as important as math, science or english. I will try to follow your example and lead my students with a respectful and creative approach.

@dhortiguela1 @dhortiguela1 ¿Qué tipo de unidades podremos enseñar los docentes de EF? ¿Hay algún plan específico? ¿Se ha consultado con expertos en la asignatura de EF? ¿Podrán compartir los estudiantes el material deportivo? Gracias David.
