@CoachPirillo Thereโs none better for prek physed than @LovePrimaryPE! Learned a lot from her. In my own experience, itโs repetition, (same start, same finish), using imaginative play and exploration/storytelling in every lesson in some way.
Letโs do this! Time to start prepping for a new school year and OPEN has new #physed resources to help you get ready for the BEST YEAR EVER! All grades have been updated! Look for the Back to School section at https://t.co/LWYYnGTttw! #peteacher

Over the last 20 years, there has been a push inย youth sportsย to spend any and all available practice time on developing specific sport skills at the expense of developing all-around athleticism. You would think that, with all this specialized practice in one sport, we would be seeing a generation of superstars. In fact, itโs just the opposite: Injury and burnout rates are at an all-time high.
I have seen young athletes as young as 8-9 years old competing at a regional and national level for their perspective sports, and yet they cant do basic things like :
1. Balance on one leg
2. Complete an honest pushup
3. Never learned to fall correctly.
Amazingly these skills don't require special training.
Proper general movement training can go a long way toward helping improve overall athleticism. Movement sessions for children should be fun, engaging, challenging, and most importantly, semi-organized. Between school and sports, children spend their entire day in an organized setting being constantly told what to do. A good training program will let young athletes develop their own style of movement to be able to solve movement problems in their own unique way. Children develop this movement sense by practicing, exploring movement, and trying things out.

@MrAndersonPhyEd Activities that reflect the developmental considerations of students at the end of the school year. Ex: 5th graders who now enjoy more competitive team games than they would have in September. Add in S choice which will foster S engagement! #yardsticks
