Google Communities in the Classroom
GooglE Communities allows me to stay refreshed and up to date on material regarding physical education. I followed and joinded about 5 communities. I obviously joined communities that talked specifically about physical education but i also followed/ JoinEd communities that talkS about healthy living and health & fitnEss. I leanred alot in these specific communities. The main thing i got out of thEse health and fitness communities is material i can present to future students. Google communities can be used tHroughout thE classroom all year. This community gives us teachers the oppurtunity to think deeper and become more creative throughout our work. I am extremely excited to work with this in the future.
in the physical education google community that I joined, I found a link that really interested me about physical education. The resource was from the Sacramento bee and the title of that was why it's so bad that children get too much homework, not enough exercise. this really interested me because I know how important it is for kids to get physical exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Th The second resource that I was going to talk about is the PE resources/tech ideas google community that I joined. Th this google community really caught my attention because it has great tech ideas for PE classes that can help students and educators learn from.on on the community I dug deeper and found a site called play sport.net Play sport says that it can help children and youth develop an understanding of the skills and strategies associated with playing a wide range of physical activities and sports. I thin I think it's really important for children to be learning skills in the context of fun games and that is what play sports.net is all about. It is just as important for the educator to explain the game as the kids learning from it.
