This fitness activity can be used in a gym setting, in a classroom or anywhere that you have some space to have kids perform some stationary exercises and movement skills in small groups. The “What’s on Your Plate- Thanksgiving Fitness Edition” is very easy to set up and can last anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes, depending upon the duration you use per rotational movement set. The What’s on Your Plate- Thanksgiving Fitness Edition was designed for Kindergarten through 6th grade students.

DEVELOPING AN APPRECIATION FOR OTHERS!!! The “Creating Awareness of Exceptional Children product provides activities and experiences that will expose students to a number of exceptionalities (disabilities) and provide movement experiences to simulate them. The primary goal is for the students to nurture acceptance of and develop an appreciation, awareness and respect for individuals with exceptionalities and the challenges they experience in their daily lives. By understanding the challenges others face, students will value diversity and hopefully become advocates for individuals with disabilities in and beyond the school setting. The activities encourage opportunities for students to share feelings and personal information about the issues exceptional children face. Inside this product is comprehensive grouping of activities, signs and task cards (descriptors and images), along with a full lesson plan, circuit diagram and an optional assessment exit slip. The station task cards provide interesting movement experiences that help (in a small way) replicate some of the following exceptionalities; Visual Impairment (blindness), Auditory Impairment (deafness), learning disabilities, brain injuries, movement disorders and paralysis. The students work together with their classmates to go through courses blindfolded, balance on apparatus while performing tasks, move in wheelchairs, execute movements while being restricted and using signs and signals to cue other students.

MEET THE PE SUPER FRIENDS!!! The PE Super Friends Components of Fitness Signs include 11 Health and Fitness Related Display Signs that were created for younger students to help them relate to and understand the 5 Health and 6 Skill Related Components of Physical Fitness. The images are eye-catching and fun for children and the information communicates simple ideas about each component of fitness. Each sign includes the following informational tidbits that will help your students grasp a better understanding of the components of physical fitness: 1. a super hero name and image, 2. their favorite word, 3. their favorite food, 4. their favorite activity, 5. their super fuel, 6. their super power and 7. the component of fitness they represent. The signs can be displayed in key areas of your gym to be highlighted during instruction. They can be used to reinforce the fitness-related concepts you cover during your class. Whether it is a game you are playing or a sport-specific skill you are working on, the health or skill related component signs can work as a valuable and practical tool for you to come back to time and time again!
