Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use handouts in PE without taking away from activity time?
Keep handouts to under one page and use them at the beginning (rules/strategies) or end (reflection/tracking) of class, not during movement time. Warm-up reading, cool-down reflection, or homework completion all work better than stopping activity time.
What health education topics work well as PE handouts?
Heart rate and cardiovascular fitness, nutrition and food labels, muscle groups and FITT principle, stress management and mental wellness, sleep and recovery. Focus on content that directly applies to what students are doing in the gym that unit.
