The global pandemic has dramatically changed the way school districts present content. Physical education lessons are different this year with the current social distancing rules in place. I am a Physical education teacher at DeRuyter Central School District seeking equipment for a cardio drumming unit. Cardio drumming is a highly engaging, non-traditional fitness activity. Students use drumsticks to drum out beats and patterns on stability balls while also performing exercises. It is a great way to get student’s heart rates up while also having fun improving coordination and getting a full-body workout. Cardio drumming will allow students to socially distance while drumming to their favorite songs. Children who are well-exercised enjoy greater self-esteem, eat and sleep better, even concentrate better in class.
