PE Teacher Tip: Teach the routine BEFORE you need the routine.

The first few weeks may feel slower when you're teaching routines, but those minutes pay dividends all year long.

What's one PE routine you couldn't live without?

School can feel overwhelming sometimes. When it does, pause and take a breath, break tasks into bite-sized steps, reach out to a friend or teacher, fit in short breaks and prioritize sleep, and celebrate small wins. What’s your go-to coping trick? #Resilient

Sessions & learning matter — yet it's often the hallway chats, reunions, laughs, & the people we didn’t know we missed until we saw them again that stick with us. Ready to make more memories? Annual Convention registration & hotel reservations open Saturday. #AnnualConvention

[Texas AHPERD @TexAHPERD]

What can one convention give you?

A fresh idea.
A new connection.
A time-saving resource.
A conversation that shifts your thinking.
A reminder you’re not doing this work alone.

Registration opens Aug 15. #Networking #TexAHPERD

@Physedmanrising 100% What is your number one routine to establish?

Back-to-School Check!

The floors are polished. The equipment is organized. The lesson plans are multiplying. And somewhere, a PE teacher is ready to start the school year.

What is the ONE thing you always make sure to teach during your first week of PE?

August in Texas has a way of waking everything up.

Lights flip on. Gyms buzz again. Whistles blow. Early mornings come back. Another season gets under way.

To every coach and teacher pouring into kids this fall — we’ve missed this, too. #BackToSchool #THSCACoaches
