PhysEdCamp Model as HS Physical Education Class

Loriann Minka (@lmwppeh) has kindly shared everything you need to know to create your own PhysEdCamp HS Physical Education class here: http://wppe.weebly.com/step-by-step-how-to-edcamppeclass.html

If you aren't familiar with the EdCamp model, it is based on the concept of participants coming up with the topics they would like to explore and then, together with others interested in the same topic diving deeply into it.

Here is the What, Why and How of the class Lori offers her students:


What - #EdCampPEClass is a new learning experience where students choose units based on what they are interested in or passionate about learning. 

Why - Traditional methods do not seem to be effective at transforming a student's mindset about PE or sparking that lifelong love of physical activity & movement.

How - Use a flipped Genius Hour mindset (20% teacher time for content & 80% student time for activity) to ensure you get time to teach the material you feel is essential.

    PDF to 4 Page (or Larger) Poster

    Discussion 
    If you have a pdf that you'd like to enlarge, you can do so right from within Adobe Reader. Here's how: Go to "Print", then choose "Poster": Next, set the scale to "200%" for 4 pages (experiment for larger) and I prefer no overlap, so set it to 0: PRINT!!

    Human Bingo from Jonathan Alsheimer

    Discussion 
    This cool "Human Bingo" game can be used to spice up review and as an opportunity for formative feedback. Video explanation: bit.ly/2QKyatl It was shared by Jonathan Alsheimer (@mr_Alsheimer) and can be used for just about any topic! Get creative! I have created a spreadsheet to make setting up the game fast and easy. Just enter your questions and answers and the sheet sets up the slips that students put in each Bingo box, as well generates a random question order. Here's the spreadsheet: http://bit.ly/2uFazlb
