Did you know OPEN and the AHA have a video series to help teachers with jump rope skills in #physed? Each video has a task card of the trick jump and a video of students performing a demo! You can access the entire playlist on our YouTube channel at https://t.co/jCNs6NTZUo !

@project_physed Thank you for this! I was just about to bag stuff the turkey because I had the same problem! Going to use our velcro football flag belts to solve this problem. Thank you!!

@physedreview This is so cool. I'm also interested to hear how you use it after you make the song.

I love this quote for #physed so I turned it into a bulletin board. “The game is never more important than the people you play with.” Looking forward to bringing this message to life in our PE classes this year. #bulletinboard #PE

Found a 🎤 stand at Goodwill & converted it into an extended racket. Someone said, “you’re like MacGyver for APE” & I’ve never felt more complimented 🤣 seeing things differently is one of my fav parts of my job. Keep your 👀+🧠 open & watch what you do for your Ss! #AdaptedPE

Moving along with our striking unit - home run derby is a great way to keep partners active. Ss waiting try to get ball back on cone while partner runs back and forth after hit to collect “runs”. We add up runs after 3-4 rounds!

K-2 playing “Fencing Foot Tag” due to 🌧️

2 noodles about 3 ft long. Ss start w/3 face-off like 🏒

Working on eye-hand coordination, long handed implements & footwork.

They played for 2-3 min. I rotated partners 4 times.

Favorite #PhysEd equipment hack. Plastic golf club tubes + cone= inexpensive batting tee!

[Craig Kemmlein @coachkemmlein]

Working on frisbee backhand & hammer throw by adapting equip. Saw something like this on Twitter a few years ago & attempted to recreate it. It worked great! Thank you to whomever shared the original idea! See end of video for how it was put together #adaptedpe #physed #secphysed

Here’s how we’ve been playing 2 player #Goalball in #AdaptedPE using the @APHfortheBlind sensory learning kit and scorecard plus a ramp, bell ball, floor tape, rope, cones, a goal, and some electronics.

Kindergarten version of the Pipeline Challenge using wooden eggs to transport across the gym. A drop, just means they try again from where it fell. #physed #Geneva304 https://t.co/NBFRWAFqT5

[Kent Hamilton @MrHamiltonPE]

Hula Hoop Bowling! A fun cooperative activity working on underhand rolling! 3 points if your roll knocks the hula hoops down (then run as a team and set them back up). 1 point if your roll hits the hula hoops and they don’t fall down. Students did a great job working together!
