Greetings PE Nation,

I hope you are doing well. Kindergarten is a little hectic but I know it gets better! Remember to model, model, model instruction. Be sure to check out the new episodes on my podcast, including lessons from our cruise and creating an alter ego in PE. Remember, this is the format for the newsletter:

1-A tip, game or strategy for teaching

2-A Book I'm reading or a quote I came across

3-A podcast or documentary I think is amazing

4-An awesome thing I've seen or heard or a current obsession of mine

5-A question to ponder or respond to

I hope you enjoy!

1-Teaching Strategy

Jigsaw is one of the best cooperative learning PE strategies. It fosters teamwork, communication and creativity. I put out a video of my jigsaw cards. Check it out!

2-Book I'm reading

"Thinkertoys" is a book I've heard about for years. I finally purchased it a year ago. It's full of exercises and strategies that will change the way you look at problems and solutions. It also stimulates creativity and new ways of thinking. I love it!

3-Documentary to check out

I recently watched "Skywalkers: A love Story" on Netfix. It was about two people who fell in love doing one of the most dangerous things I've ever seen: climbing tall structures and taking pictures of themselves. Trust me, it's fantastic!

4-Awesome thing I've seen or heard

Although I grew up a Montreal Expos, then NY Mets fan, Greg Maddux of the Atlanta Braves was always my favorite pitcher. He was so much fun to watch. Here's a short video on how he called his own pitches. Enjoy!

5-Questions to ponder

I haven't done interviews in a while, but I love hearing about new ideas and what's going on in the PE world. Anyone want to share? Sign up to be a guest on the show!

I hope you've enjoyed this 5-Boomer Friday. Let me know how I can make it more beneficial for you in the future.
