HEALTH CURRICULUM: How often would a school have to update their health curriculum? The school that I am currently student teaching at hasn't updated their curriculum for over 7 years. Please share in the forum.   DODGEBALL: What are some other variations of dodgeball? I know that when I was in elementary school, cones were spread out across the gym floor and we had to knock the cones down. Any other suggestions? Please share in the forum.   IMPROPER DRESS: At the school I am student teaching, certain students NEVER dress. This reflect their grade, but these students just don't care. I was wondering if there is anyone who knows how to motivate them to dress or a different approach to take because deducting points from their grade isn't working? Please share in the forum.   TENNIS SHOES: I'm having the worst time with students not wearing tennis shoes. I have sent notes and reminders home but it keeps happening with the same kids. I don't like sitting kids out but when they have the wrong shoes on I have to. Any suggestions? Please share in the forum.   REFUSAL TO PARTIPATE IN PE: I was wondering if anyone has any ideas or strategies in dealing with students who refuse to participate in P.E. even after you have sent them to the office or called home. Any thoughts? Please share in the forum.   PE WAIVERS: Most high schools have different policies on waivers for PE. At my high school only Juniors and Seniors could get an athletic waiver if they were in 2 varsity sports. At the high school that I student teach at, any student athlete can get a waiver but it is only for during that sport season. What are other schools views on waivers? Please share in the forum.   VIDEO TAPING: I am contemplating using video taping of my students to assist them in improving their skills. Has anyone done this? Any suggestions or pointers? Please share in the forum.   REWARDING KIDS THAT TRY: In one of my classes I have a handful of kids who are disruptive and cant seem to do what they are asked. I feel bad because there are kids in the class that work hard and do what they are asked. However because of the other students (who are disruptive,) I feel they arent getting what they deserve. What ideas if any would you have to either reward or try to seperate the good kids? Please share in the forum.   CARDIO OUTSIDE: I am starting to student teach at a school that has bleachers and a track. Today I had them run the bleachers and the track, but does anyone know special activities or drill I can have them do on the track and bleachers that will motivate students and make it fun? Please share in the forum.   WII FIT: As any teachers or gyms bought Wii Fit?? Do you all feel that this program allows those students who normally don't work out an interest to try to be fit. Besides being quite expensive is there any other downsides to this program? Please share in the forum.
