First Day, Last Day, and a Little in the Middle
Time: 8am ET (0800)
Speaker: Claudia Brown (United States)
Intended Audience: Health Education (Grades 6-12)
Session Description: On day one, Claudia’s health students apply for “jobs” in the classroom, engage in her “high five” program, and learn how to earn “health money.” During the course of teaching skills-based health education, students perform their jobs whenever required in class. They are “paid” monthly by class bankers and keep records of their savings. At the end of the semester, those students who have earned a “high five” are invited on a healthy risk-taking field trip, and all students participate in a class-wide auction to spend their “health money.” This method of operation has worked for Claudia for the past several years and is fun, engaging, and full of possibility!

HBOs: The Holy Grail of Health Education?
Time: 12pm ET (1200)
Speaker: Gary Lemke (United States)
Intended Audience: Health Education (Grades 6-12)
Session Description: Can health be a cool course? Consider this: no other subject in school covers more about what occupies student brain energy – their thoughts, feelings, concerns, troubles, relationships, and challenges. What if health education centered around Healthy Behavior Outcomes (HBOs) instead of drugs, sex, and sushi rolls (nutrition)? This session features case studies from three high schools that flipped from an information-centered to a student-centered approach. A peer-driven (yet teacher facilitated) environment allows students to develop decision-making skills that lead to better healthy behavior outcomes. Here’s your chance to make it all about them.

Physical Literacy Mentorship in Schools
Time: 1pm ET (1300)
Speaker: Ryan Fahey (Canada)
Intended Audience: Whole School (Kindergarten-Grade 12)
Session Description: Physical Literacy Mentorship was a unique opportunity for individual schools to be coached along their physical literacy journey. By working with administration in identifying champions within each school, Ever Active Schools (EAS) was able to map out a success plan of how their school could increase its level of physical literacy across all subject areas to support student health and learning outcomes. Through a school wide physical literacy focus, our champions embed physical literacy into in-school meetings, recess, and additional extra curricular activities within their schools. Participants will leave this session with alternative ways they can embed physical literacy across all grade levels within their school community.

Engaging Students to Be Active Using Social Media–The #Active365 Experience
Time: 4pm ET (1600)
Speakers: Lisa Taylor (Canada)
Intended Audience: Physical Education (Grades 6-12)
Session Description: Let’s face it – students are hooked on their mobile devices these days. I noticed specifically however their attention to social media. One year ago I thought to myself “How can I get my students to engage in more physical activity outside of the classroom using the social media so dear to their hearts?” The #active365 challenge was born. After two semesters of engaging in this challenge with my classes, I have some exciting results for you! Not only does this challenge work to get students active outside of class time, it has helped me to get to know my students, help build meaningful relationships, and has been a great motivator for me to engage in more positive role modeling as a PE teacher. Not only will I continue to offer this opportunity to my students, I will also be using it for the center focus of my thesis as I complete my Masters of PE.

Visualisation Techniques to Better Define Learning
Time: 5pm ET (1700)
Speaker: Andy Hair (Australia)
Intended Audience: Physical Education (Kindergarten-Grade 8)
Session Description: Many elite athletes routinely use visualisation techniques as part of training and competition. There are many stories of athletes who have used these techniques to cultivate not only a competitive edge, but also to create renewed mental awareness, a heightened sense of well-being, and confidence. All of these factors have been shown to contribute to an athlete’s sports success. Generally speaking, visualisation is the process of creating a mental image or intention of what you want to happen or feel in reality. These scenarios can include any of the senses. They can be visual, kinesthetic, or auditory. Using the mind, an athlete can call up these images over and over, enhancing the skill through repetition or rehearsal, similar to physical practice. Visualisation is a concept Andy uses in his classes to build visual, kinesthetic and/or auditory awareness in students to connect what they see, feel, and hear themselves performing. Andy will take you on a journey of understanding and will show you how he builds visualisation throughout learning with great success leading to more confident and successful students.

Sport Stacking Competitions to Encourage a Growth Mindset
Time: 5pm ET (1700)
Speaker: Lisa Berman (United States)
Intended Audience: Physical Education (Kindergarten-Grade 12); Before and/or Afterschool Activities; Physical Activity, Recreation, or Sport
Session Description: Hundreds of thousands of students around the world learn and enjoy sport stacking in their physical education classes, but many are not given a chance to compete since physical literacy skill development is more of a focus in PE classes than having competitions. However, preparing for a competition is project-based learning and brings meaning to a sport stacking unit. It is also an effective way to teach the SHAPE America outcomes about facing challenges. A sport stacking competition can be completed in one PE class and students can be given achievement awards to encourage further growth in their skills. Learn how you can make this happen in your PE classes. Best of all, see kids of all skill levels in action during this presentation. Grab your cups and you can compete, too!

Redefining Week One Activities
Time: 6pm ET (1800)
Speaker: Matthew Bassett (United States)
Intended Audience: Physical Education (Grades 3-8)
Session Description: The beginning of the year is very difficult. As teachers, we must provide rules and expectations for each of our classes. Many times we think of lecture as the only way to get the students started during the school year. This session will give you examples on how I’ve redefined week one activities. Instead of lecturing students, I create opportunities for the students to learn material while moving. I also use the first week (or three) working on team building activities for the students to learn the social skills for successful participation in class.

Critical Considerations of Physical Literacy Policy
Time: 7pm ET (1900)
Speaker: Dean Dudley (Australia)
Intended Audience: Early Childhood; Physical Education (Kindergarten-Grade 12); Higher Ed; Adapted Physical Education; Physical Activity, Recreation, or Sport; Research
Session Description: Article 3 of the International Charter for Physical Education, Physical Activity and Sport clearly states that Health, Sport, and Education agencies must participate in creating a strategic vision and identify policy options and priorities that enable the fundamental right for all people to participate (or have the opportunity to participate) in meaningful physical activity across their life course. Physical literacy is a rapidly evolving concept being used in policy-making but has been limited by pre-existing and sometimes bias interpretations of the construct. The aim of this presentation is to present a model of physical literacy policy considerations for key decision makers in the fields of public health, recreation, sport, and education that is consistent with international understandings of what the construct is, and how it is to be used in order to achieve established and developing public health, recreation, sport, and educative goals. Internationally debated definitions of physical literacy and the wider construct of literacy were reviewed in order to establish common pillars of physical literacy in a policy context.
