Abstract

It is the job of all educators, including physical education teachers, to prepare students for their PK-12 classrooms and beyond. Literacy is one of the fundamental skills that students need support, so why not add movement and fun to it! In this session, the presenter/s will share how they plan to integrate literacy through movement activities that are incorporated into an elementary level reading selection. Lesson plans, aligned with the VA SOLs for PE, will be provided.

Faculty Mentor(s)
