Being Physically Active in a Post-Covid World!

Help me give my students the ability to stay healthy and physically fit!

My Students

My students LOVE PE and are very energetic, but due to Covid, there's many students that are not as active as they used to be, So I believe that integrating some technology can drastically change that! We love doing outdoor activities and of course, in todays' world, students love technology. My plan is to implement new games and technologies into my physical education classroom with drone technologies. This program gives children from all cultures, areas, and various incomes an opportunity to become more engaged in a post Covid world and thrive within the district by reaching all students to be more active. My less energetic intermediate students will be able to use drone technologies to explore the outdoors, search and explore their surroundings in an interactive way, and create a cross-curricular classroom with science, math, and physical education, while keeping students physically fit.

My Project

I have noticed that Covid has changed the way our students use technology and are physically active. Due to the increased use of technology during the pandemic, and the lack of physically activity during shutdowns, Covid school closures, virtual learning, etc, I believe students are more apt to be physically active and participate when technology is involved.

I would like to implement games like Hide & Seek, Chase, Simon Says, Search and Rescue using drone technologies to keep students active and interested in physical education.

Not only will this be an innovative way for students to be active during the health and physical education hours, but it's a great opportunity for cross curricular activities.

I believe we will be able to chart, graph, and keep track of our information taken on our drone and ventures by documenting the information gathered. My adding the stretchy bands to my health class chairs students will still be able to keep physically active while documenting the scientific findings via drone technologies.
