Super fun visit to @merton_school this morning to explore ways of using the Smartboard in #physed with Mme Stefanie and Mme Tania. Always great to bring @ESDEMSB ICT consultants in the gym! So many ways that technology supports learning in the gym #emsb

Was awesome to see bike week in action this week @Cedarcrest_EMSB. All classes (K- 6) biking during their PE classes. Safety and basics progressing to outdoors and a course to navigate through. Loved seeing the novice bikers getting the opportunity to practice and progress 👍 – at Pointe-Claire, Québec

🥵 Many parents think that physical education is just a place to get kids sweaty. 🧭 In reality, P.E. is meant to help kids get the most out of life. 👇 Read today's Atomic Essay to learn how #physed achieves this and why every parent needs to fight for quality P.E. programs.

Can't wait for this! It's been a while since I've given a good ol' Twitter 101 session! Looking forward to helping fellow #physed teachers join in on the fun here. And - like most parties that involve Maritimers- this will be happening live from in my kitchen! 🎵🕺🇨🇦💃💻
Sigh....We sure do miss the Atlantic Bubble, but on Wed, Feb 24th from 8pm-9:39pm we look forward to hanging out with @taphens @physedpei @PESICNL as well as @APEQonline for an evening of PL with @JoeyFeith. Register here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
