Honored and grateful to be selected as the 2024 Ohio Elementary Physical Education Teacher of the Year!
Thank you to @OAHPERD and everyone who made this week one I will never forget! Let’s continue to move #PhysEd forward!
This week, we created @Topgolf in #PhysEd! Students took swings from hitting bays, aimed for targets, and scored points for their team! A fun and engaging way to practice golf skills, while building confidence with every swing! @FirstTee
From Avondale Elementary to the NBA!
A special shout out to one of our former students, Darryn Peterson, as he makes his NBA debut tonight! All your hard work has led to this incredible accomplishment. We wish you the best of luck and a great season ahead! 🏀
BOUNCE BALL! A fun cooperative activity where students catch the ball as it bounces in different directions off the exercise ball. Teams earn a point for each catch. Bonus point if you include your whole team! Add a defender to encourage passing and even more teamwork! #PhysEd
🍕 PIZZA DELIVERY 🍕
Students work together to deliver their pizzas (poly spots) to the house (hula hoops). One of my favorite activities for building teamwork, communication, and a positive classroom community at the start of the school year!
So excited to have a former student now playing in the NBA! Congratulations to Darryn Peterson (@Darryn_P1) on being selected as the #2 pick in the NBA Draft by the Utah Jazz! 🏀
Our WHEELS UNIT teaches students how to ride a bike, scooter, and other wheels during #PhysEd! We’re excited to see our students confidently and safely exploring community parks, trails, and neighborhoods this summer using the skills they built in PE! 🚲
Core Memory Unlocked ✨🛴
Our 1st graders had a great time riding our @RazorWorldwide scooters through the hallways to celebrate positive behavior at school!
Rollerblading is one of our favorite units of the school year! Check out some of the ways we build confidence and ensure safety while making it fun and engaging for our students! 🔥

Mini Golf + Math ⛳️ Our students PUTT their golf skills and math skills to work at Math Night. Roll the dice and then add, subtract, or multiply the numbers. After solving the math problem, try out the math themed mini golf hole!
@FirstTee ⛳️ @1teecanton
Collaboration in action! 🥍
Teamed up with our Youth Lacrosse Program and coaches to give 4th grade students a hands-on introduction to the sport of Lacrosse! Working together to grow the sport in our community while practicing cradling, scooping, shooting, and more!
