Elementary PE Teacher and Track Coach
About Me

I am a "Senior Plus" as I am sometimes called. Although I already have a degree in Sports Mangagement and Leisure Recreation, I am back in school to get my PE Teaching Certificate. I would liek to finish getting my certificate within another year and half, and become an Elementary PE Teacher.

I want to become a PE Teacher to young children, because I love playing with children, watching them grow, helping them learn about sports and the sports they like to play. I also like to be outdoors and feel children should spend more time outdoors playing and getting exercise.

My Teaching Philosophy

My Teaching Philosophy:

I feel that children need to spend more time outdoors exercising and playing than indoors. I feel it PE gives students a chance to play outside, exercise, make friends, and improve their fine/gross motor skills. PE also teaches children how to have sportsman like attitudes toward winning and loosing. As a PE Teacher, I will teach my students the benefits of staying healthy, using the talents to play sports God gave them, how to work as team, and what competition is truly about. I will do this while also teaching children to give glory to God for the athletic abilities they have.

About the games I just listed

These 3 games are great to play indoors on rainy days. The first 2 let students learn about telling time, and about their favorite foods, subjects, etc depending on the categories. Those games also give students a chance to test out their running speed, ability, agility, and have fun. The crab game can be good for beginner soccer with the younger kids, to help them learn the concept and develop muscles, while using references to animal they may be learning about in science. These games can also be played outside and are great for ages 5-8.
