Also, a solid reminder to not assume that a student has background knowledge when attempting a skill or task.
#AdaptedPE 👩🎓 working on balancing on different bases and she kept trying to d down dog upside down?!?!
I was perplexed!
Then I saw that this👩🎓, who cannot yet read, was picking the card up each time, holding it upside down, and covering the words!
Perspective is Everything!

Showing students their data, when they are ready for a tracked/timed level of challenge, is such a game changer for empowering the student!
An #AdaptedPE 👨🎓 wanted an increased 🤚 dribbling challenge so we worked on dribbling, securing the 🏀 , and then moving his 🦽 forward.
He advanced through levels of challenge until he was traveling through a course trying to improve his performance. From 45 to 31 sec. so proud!

So many students would benefit from more scaffolding between introduction of equipment and small-sided game play.

For those of us who connect to learning more readily through visuals spend 10 seconds on this one, it is powerful.

Not only a visual but a gif that is directly connected to the Learning Target, so helpful for students who may need more support AND enables the teacher to circulate more instead of modeling over and over.
This is a terrific example an accommodation that could be submitted for "ADAPTOBER".

A solid balanced strategy for providing feedback for students at all levels.
I find it works well as it can support students of all skill levels.
Don't let that crucial moment at the end of an activity go to waste!
