WE TEACH PHYSICAL EDUCATION!!! We are PHYSICAL EDUCATION teachers and we are PROUD to teach Physical Education! Most of us have the luxury to teach in a large playing area we refer to as the “GYM” but we certainly do not teach “GYM” despite what we sometimes hear from our classroom colleagues, administrators, parents, students and from the general public! The term “Gym Class” brings up a negative vibe and it is important that we make an effort to change how we are addressed to bring our field the respect that it deserves. Our discipline is truly holistic as we are one of the few subjects that can reach the “whole child”. We truly have a tremendous effect on our students'’ cognitive, affective and psychomotor learning ability. This poster was developed as a response to a PE Central Facebook post by Stacy Furness in which she wrote about how frustrated she was with how her solid PE program was being devalued by others in her building. She, like others in our field, are tired of being “looked down upon” and thought of as the “babysitters” located in the gym for others to use in the building. This disrespect begins when others use the term “Gym Class” rather than Physical Education, PhysEd or PE. This poster was designed to be placed on or above a gym door to let others know WHO we are and WHAT we do in a brief but POWERFUL way! I put the poster out for review and found that individual PE teachers have different situations (some without gyms) and also found that some prefer a DIRECT wording approach while others prefer a more INDIRECT one. For that reason, I created 4 versions (with 2 backgrounds for each version) of the poster, to accommodate these style and situational differences.

SHOUT IT OUT!!! We are united as Physical Education teachers that our profession is STRONG! We are the place to be in the school to develop our students holistically. We teach to improve our students physical, cognitive and affective domains. WE ARE A BIG DEAL!!! Physical education encourages physical activity for life, provides an outlet for creativity and self-expression, develops cooperation and teamwork, builds self-confidence, provides opportunities for personal goal-setting, increases personal fitness and motor skill development, helps reduce stress & anxiety, strengthens relationships with others and boosts academic learning! This poster was developed as a FUN and ATTRACTIVE physical education ENTRY VISUAL that gets straight to the point. This poster was designed in 4 colors to be placed on or above a gym door to let others know (in a fun way) that we are PROUD of who we are and PROUD of what we teach!

WHERE CAN I EXHIBIT PHYSICAL LITERACY? PHYSICAL LITERACY can be defined as is the ability to move your body confidently during physical activity, make healthy lifestyle choices and perform a variety of skills at school, home and in the community. The basic foundation of physical literacy suggests that just as learning the alphabet is essential for learning to read, the development of essential movement and sport skills is fundamental for performance in physical activities/games/dance and a catalyst for an active lifestyle at school, at home and in the community . Physically literate individuals are able to demonstrate their movement vocabulary in a number of diverse environments. The displayed “Movement Environments for Physical Literacy” poster provides a “student friendly” depiction of the 4 main environments that students would likely be physically active in at school, home or in their community. The graphics in the poster are “kid friendly” and help to draw your students’ eyes to the information presented.
