This is about PE (physical education) in an elementary school setting that will discuss resources, ideas, what works and doesn't work. My goal is to do whatever it takes to make PE engaging for all students regardless of athletic abilities. Get those kids moving and having fun!

Recently, a colleague of mine introduced me to Classroom 2.0 which explores collaborative technologies in education through a social networking setting. I haven't had a chance to really delve into it yet, but it looks interesting enough to share. I'm interested in this because I would like to learn how other PE teachers are incorporating technology in lessons.Do you have any experience with this site or know of any others that address the needs of PE teachers?

Fit Kids!
Here is a site I found that might be of interest to parents. They really need to be involved to help us in our journey of helping kids to desire fitness in their lives.

This is my inaugural post!
Hi!
I'm a PE teacher who wants to learn and share what works, what doesn't and just to kick it in general.
This blog is basically a way to share resources and ideas with other folks about elementary school physical education and shoot the breeze with other like-minded folk. More to come!
