Presentations

As a local student in an international school I lived through many experiences that I didn't understand until very recently. In 2019, students at international schools around the world began to protest against schools that were impeding them from their own values, traditions and languages.

"What are Disability/Adapted/Para sports and why are they important to include in your physical education program? This presentation will demonstrate the use of disability and adapted sports such as sitting volleyball and goalball as a way to teach sport specific skills that can align with your curriculum while providing a unique sporting experience that can enhance knowledge of disability sports. "

Are you a fan of gamification? Have you tried it before? Would you like to? Implementing gamified experiences into your projects, units and even your whole year can be done! We'll be talking about Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation as a way to reach our students learning styles.

In this session, I will take you through an entire dance unit. I will show you fun dance games like the beat challenge, dance tag, and follow-the leader that help students learn about rhythm, levels, pathways and force in dance.

This presentation will provide teachers with a dynamic new approach to teaching movement and play by integrating storylines, music, specialized equipment, and role play into a fully gamified movement and character building program called Super Moverz.

This workshop will use the sport of cricket as the subject matter to teach creativity and discovery. Examples will range from simple skills through to more complex games.

Good PE teachers don't always make good Athletic Directors. It takes much more than just a knowledge of curriculum and sport to run a successful athletic program. Are you in your first year of being an AD? Juggling a dual role in PE and coordinating sports teams? Have aspirations to some day become an AD? Join me for some tips to get ahead of the game before you're in too deep and sinking. If you're an experienced AD, this probably isn't for you, but you're welcome to come along and share as well!

Looking to introduce some new ideas to uplift and re-energise your Gymnastics’ lessons? Would you like to be able to break Gymnastics skills down into bite size activities to make them easier or harder to achieve based on the competency levels of your gymnasts? Need to challenge your pupils, but are unsure of the technical teaching points?

Integrating technology into physical activities to enhance learners executive function, which supports learning through better focussed attention, and memory through dual tasks (the layering of complexity NOT multi-tasking!) Best of all it's fun, active and progressive and can give data on individual learners and their progress.

The evolving landscape of sport and physical activity settings calls for a re-examination of pedagogies and practices. More specifically, how to adequately address the needs of girls and women within physical education.

This presentation demonstrates why and how to use literature as a pedagogical frame for encouraging children to move with purpose.

A discussion about diversity, equity, and inclusion in physical education. In this presentation, Dominique will discuss context, wider responsibilities, and how we can get there as physical educators.

We will inquire, explore and learn how to use different rhythmic gymnastics apparatus and the process of creating a movement composition.

In this session, we’ll be exploring resources and techniques to help promote body positivity in the classroom and on the field, while teaching students to view media messages with a critical eye.

In this session, I will share various games I have used during individual pursuit activities such as Dance, Gymnastics, and Fitness. These games provide both individual and group movement explorations and I hope you will take some ideas away and apply them in your own lessons. Get ready to move while playing... Mario Kart Fitness, Disco Uno, and Emoji Stacker.
