This was a great activity I learned from @gagaballxp recently - Sonic’s Rings! Always aim for the furthest hoop and steal from another team if successful! Students loved it!

Lots of jumping, teamwork, and communication here! I believe I saw this from @justybubPE. 🙌 #physed

Play Shoot & Swipe! Thanks to our student teacher for bringing this activity to our students, and to the PE teachers across social media as the resource! #physicaleducationteacher #physicaleducation #peteacher #physed #funactivities

Crateball, and student favorite #Basketball game in #PhyEd today!. They come in, see the crates on the floor, and immediately the excitement builds. Just a great game with lots of possible variations. Would love to hear/see some new ones!

Love this! This activity will be great to do when we get back from spring break. A little team building to start the rest of the year

We now have evidence that gentle parenting doesn’t work. Here’s an uncomfortable truth about parenting no one wants to say out loud: The data is not kind to gentle parenting. According to teenagers, strict curfews. strict bedtimes, screen limits, device drop off times, dedicated homework blocks, and sleepover restrictions IMPROVE higher relationship quality. And yes, parenting difficulty goes up. Of course it does. Leadership is harder than appeasement. For the past decade we have been sold a watered down, Instagram friendly version of “gentle parenting” that often collapses into boundary avoidance, endless negotiation and emotional processing without enforcement. Parents terrified of saying no because they do not want to rupture connection. But connection without authority is not connection. It is dependency. When parents impose structure, the relationship improves. Teenagers report better parent child relationship quality in homes with curfews and rules. Younger kids report better relationships in homes with screen limits and bedtimes. Even device drop off times correlate positively. Why? Because structure is not cruelty. Structure is love made visible. A bedtime says: your brain matters more than your entertainment. A screen limit says: your dopamine system is not fully developed and I will guard it until it is. A curfew says: your safety matters more than your social standing. That is not authoritarianism. That is caring. Boundaries create friction. Friction creates growth. The parent absorbs the short term discomfort so the child does not pay the long term cost. Children do not experience well calibrated limits as rejection. They experience them as stability. The human brain craves predictability. Predictability reduces anxiety. Reduced anxiety strengthens attachment. That is why relationship quality goes up. Notice something else in the data. The strongest effects are around time structure. Bedtime. Homework. Devices. Outside play. These are environmental constraints. They scaffold executive function. The winning formula is not tyranny. It is high warmth plus high structure. The modern failure mode is high warmth plus low structure. That is just abdication of responsibility wrapped in empathy. Children need leadership, not negotiation. They need adults who can tolerate their anger. They need boundaries that do not move every time emotions spike. They need someone whose prefrontal cortex is fully myelinated. The harder path produces the stronger bond. Because when a child feels that someone is strong enough to hold the line, they relax. And relaxed nervous systems build durable relationships.

@PE_with_Mr_G @physedreview That’s a great idea! Thanks! I teach outside so the cards take a beating. This would help a lot! Thanks for the idea

Had my 5th graders help put our playing cards in plastic sleeves! Their teacher was nice enough to have them work on this in their classroom. Next up will be our UNO cards! Saw this from @physedreview as a trick to keep cards in good condition. 👍🃏 #PhysEd

Yarn Ball Curling! Easy set up and clean up for Winter Olympics Activities, or name it something else and use it for another time :) Have fun! #physed

The Golden Rule when you're learning a new skill‼️👇

@pohlnerpe I love this so much!! Thank you for sharing. But wait a second….you are living the DREAM!!! Single classes AND a gym?!!!! Nice!

BOARDGAME BASKETBALL !!!! Watch the video for my set up and rules. My students lose their marbles over this super engaging, competitive team activity working on the set shot. #physed

@pe4everykid Other items we got for free- Geoboards, Pattern blocks, wooden blocks, dice. These are also great for rainy days in Florida.

What’s your best pick up from the “free table” at your school? #physed #physicaleducation

@pe4everykid The snap cubes are amazing for multiple reasons. We don’t have a gym, so when it rains or it’s too cold, we use them as a STEM bin station. We’ve also used them for picking teams (kids drawer from a bucket), and for Mastermind.

@thepespecialist Love this! Always jealous of your gym. It has been so chilly outside in Orlando! Do you post your slides online anywhere?

Reviewing some Intermediate tricks with my 4th-5th grade students today before we get into our advanced jump rope tricks 🤙🏻 . The side swing is a crowd favorite for sure 😄 . #physed #iteachpe #peteacher #jumprope
