I guess it’s official now that I have the banner up in my gym! I’m incredible grateful and honored to have received the Elementary Teacher of the Year award from @SHAPE_Colorado 🏆 #elementarype #teacheroftheyear #physed #SHAPECO

Staff pickleball club…Halloween costume edition! #PhysEd IYKYK 🦬🏈🎃

@MrQuinnPE Awesome! The you! 👊🏼

@CoachOrdway Rechargeable Digital Kitchen... amazon.com/dp/B0B7DQS7CB?… And it’s even magnetic to throw on a whiteboard!

This has been such a simple but effective change this week. It’s keeping me on track (and prevents rambling) and the students can see the effect when I have to wait for talking & noises to stop. #physed

@MrQuinnPE Awww, so fun! Congrats! That’s right by my house! Let me know if you ever wanna grab a beer at ephemeral sometime!

@CoachOrdway Thank you! Columbine Elementary, close enough to bike to and excited to be near city park

Well, that’s a wrap here in Jeffco. Excited for my new position in Denver, but I’ll miss all the students and teachers I’ve gotten to know here over the past 3 years. Said goodbye the best way I could, a note and some homemade bread

I love seeing students collaborate and work together to come up with a cardio drumming routine! Lots of great communication and creative ideas! 🥁 #physed #elempe #cardiodrumming

@CoachTrevino9 @NISD_PE @NISDMead Love it!! Thank you! 👊🏼👏🏼

@CoachOrdway @NISD_PE @NISDMead We have it now on a pulley system that we have rigged up on a beam. I will be posting a new video of the whole contraption later because it got a lot more attention and views then we could have imagined. 😂 🐭 🪤 Similar to a piñata 🪅 where someone holds and drops the rope

We had a vision and made it happen… I give you the life sized version of “Mousetrap” 🐭 🧀 The kids have loved it ❤️ we had to make some modifications throughout the day, but now I think we have an extra fast trap 🪤 ready to go for tomorrow! ⁦@NISD_PE⁩ ⁦@NISDMead⁩

@MrBiehlsPE I got the money from the Target dollar spot years ago. Worth every penny! 💰

@CoachOrdway Lisa, gold mine idea 💡 Where did you get the money?

One of my favorite 🏀 games. Money in the bank.3 different level shots…$5,$10,$20. If S makes it, go to the bank to get money. Ss are trying to get the most $ but they want the fewest amount of bills.If they have two $5s, trade it in for one $10.High engagement!#physed #elempe

@MrQuinnPE I really like this!

A school wide practice for my school is “portrait lessons” the students get a chance to look at a photo, discuss 6 aspects of the photo and then share. It’s really been helping introduce sports or activities the skills can be used in at the start of a unit #physed

@MrQuinnPE 🤣🤣🤣 funny because it’s true!!! I feel this so much!

On any given day kindergarten can leave me feeling like a phenomenal teacher, or I should quit I’m so bad. There is no in between. #physed

All my Nickelodeon dreams came true today! 😆 My principal and I got slimed bc we beat our fundraising goal for our school jog-a-thon!

Cosmic bowling in PE…what a day!!! 🎳 I don’t know who had more fun, me, @joefish620, or the students!!!! 😃😎 #physed #elempe #pegeek

This is one of my favorite video clips to “hook” students when talking about teamwork! It always leads to great turn and talk conversation before we get started with team building challenges. #physed #elempe #teamwork #pegeek youtu.be/m5Mj1gM67Mc

Some of my favorite team challenges are 1. Secret Maze 2. Hula Huts 3. Cup Carry 4. Pipeline Challenge. #elemPE #physed #pegeek #teambuilding

Crack the Code!Ss work together to figure out the combination to a padlock.Students write down 3 #s, run to those numbered cones, do 2 jumping jacks, then check in with T to see if their combination is correct.Rinse & repeat!High engagement & collaboration!#physed #elemPE 💪🏼

@gregbrinck @_negrace 😢 so many memories!

Still riding high from Field Day! I even had some special guests this year…my sweet nephews from California. Grateful to have THE BEST JOB EVER!☀️💦💪🏼🏃🏽‍♀️#physed #FieldDay
