Ready!

Now that I am in my last week of my final class for my Master's what will I do with all of the extra (yeah right) time that I left.  I'm thinking about going to work earlier than usual to get a good workout before school starts.  What are you going to do with your extra time when you complete your Master's degree?

PE Central

pecentral.com is a great site for all teachers.  There are some great ways to use physical activity in the classroom setting.  There are different ideas and ways listed on the website for students from elementary school to high school to be involved in being active.  Great way to use some cross curriculum studies!

Health Class

Just started teaching Health and Wellness at the High School level for the first time ever.  What would be some ways to help make health a fun subject to learn.  I want to keep my class involved and interested the whole time. 

Exercise of the Week

This week choose something unconventional to do as an exercise.  Walk the stairs at your house for 30 minutes 3days a week.  Do jumping jacks during the commercials when you are watching TV.  What can you come up with?  Give me some ideas!
