The students I teach come from diverse economic backgrounds, so I try to create an environment that provides equal opportunities for all our students. Despite these differences outside of school, my students love physical education and being physically active. I love to join in a play activities with my students and they really appreciate that teacher interaction.
My students love a good challenge and to be physically active.
I am always looking for new ways to both engage and challenge my students with fun and innovative games an activities.
My Project
I am always looking for new ways to incorporate different kinds of thinking into my physical education classes. I use math problems to figure out how many seconds or repetitions for different exercises. I utilize science concepts such as speed, force and levers for different physical education units and I use reading and writing as well. Speed Stacks are great because they provide both a mental and physical challenge for all ages and levels of ability. Speed Stacks will provide another method to incorporate quick thinking, fine motor skills while boosting physical fitness too.
By making fitness both fun and challenging, I hope to boost my students physical fitness and cognitive skills as well.
