Presentations

Experiences shared leading a large Physical Education department.

The presentation explains the sensitive stages of development as well as the critical stages within the sensitive stage for each motor skill. If the sensitive stages are not used, then the child cannot reach his potential.

This workshop will share emergent research, feature stories from teachers who have made these types of changes and facilitate activities to help you develop a wellness-based SS culture in your context.

In this presentation, we will take a look at how we have integrated gymnastics into Shanghai American School’s K-5 PE program and increased student interest and participation in gymnastics-related activities. Please come to this session ready to participate in a sped-up version of our gymnastics unit.

In this presentation, we will look at examples of how Health and Physical Education from K-10 and sport coaching ‘at the leading edge’ is responding to current challenges.

This is a classroom-based workshop where participants can see how Meaningful PE can inform teachers’ decisions in how they plan lessons/units of work.

As international schools find themselves in an era of uncertainty and change, concerns around health and wellbeing are on the rise. Without systems in place, however, initiatives risk losing momentum when there is turnover among faculty and staff. During this session, we’ll be discussing the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child model- a free tool that helps schools identify resources and initiatives that are working, look for gaps and areas for growth, and align so that everyone in the community is speaking the same language and working towards the same common goals.

This workshop is tailored for individuals seeking to enhance their confidence in using language that transcends gender stereotypes and norms when interacting with students and navigating family dynamics.

Join us for an interactive exploration of AI's integration in HPE programs.
