I had no idea how big the PE twitter world was and I already have learned so much in the first few days! I will continue to use this app to gain knowledge and get new ideas from other physical education teachers!

👋Current PE Teachers at any level: How has twitter impacted your own learning as a PE teacher and on your teaching? #physed #pegeeks #iteachpe

PE Teachers! Check out this video from the PE Specialist, Ben Landers for your students to follow along with for a warm-up in the gym or at home! youtube.com/watch?v=ctZmWx…

This youtube link has over 100 different videos posted by OpenPE that students can watch on their screens at home and follow along to get moving and learn new skills! youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Check out this link to learn about two different resources (Kahoot and MetricMe) that you can use to bring technology into your classroom! pheamerica.org/2019/utilizing…

This is great for students to practice their overhand throwing skills but also tie in a winter twist to it! Students can also be creative in designing their own snowman. @helenabaert

This activity can be used for students to do at home and can be done with any sport. You could incorporate different skills for another sport and do this exact same activity such as with basketball or baseball. @helenabaert

Having students follow along on the screen of a dance that incorporates different locomotor movements can be great for in the gym or for students to do at home! @helenabaert

Middle School/High School PE Teachers: Do you find it difficult to motivate students to participate in PE at this age?

@RDSBPhysEd Well said! This is exactly what it's all about!

Im not sure who out there needs to hear this, but...."Phys Ed is not a segue into sporting teams, it's the segue to a lifelong involvement in physical activity" #PhysEd

Weekends are the perfect time for me to dive deep into the PE twitter world! #physed #pegeeks #iteachpe

Already learning so much after one day searching the twitter space to connect with other PE teachers! Looking forward to continuing to grow my knowledge from other educators! #iteachpe #PhysEd #pegeeks

@TynerTyners @Wellington_Elem @LISDWellness2 Teaching students teamwork in PE at a young age is a great idea and this activity does just that!

Continuing to foster TEAMWORK this week with Hoop Attack ⁦@Wellington_Elem⁩ ⁦@LISDWellness2⁩ #TeamWES #WESRoars

Another fun @CapnPetesPE large group game, Battleships. They must move around a lot on those mats trying to knockdown ship propellers🥵😅🤣. @KAHPERD @SHAPEAmericaCD @GorillaGuzzler @RustyEmling @DonEppsEDU

It's cool to see how turning a game that is normally played with a ball can be incorporated into the lesson by using a paddle to practice their skills. Thanks for sharing @phitkids ! #iteachpe #PhysEd

Incorporating small-sided games is a great way for students to practice their skills in a game like setting. I love this idea, thanks for sharing @Mrs_SMeza ! #PhysEd #pegeek

Cool idea! This can make learning a new skill more competitive for students to stay engaged more. Thanks for sharing @PE_IMS ! #PEchat #PhysEd

What a great idea @thepespecialist ! Providing modifications and making sit-ups have a fun twist to them can make students more excited to do them! Thanks for sharing! #PhysEd
