Drill and practice- students receive feedback immediately for correct or incorrect. It can be as simple as right or wrong or it can go into more detail. Each website is different and flash cards are a great example of drill and practice.

This blog always offers great information to help you improve your classroom. The latest blog was about 7 key ingredients for a successful 21st century classroom.

I bet the students love the pefriends.com tutorial. They can learn to dance and have fun at the same time! I also think the online health simulation would be a huge help for PE and Health teachers! It would give students such a better idea about the body, and the different systems in the body. Amazing what technology can do these days:)
ReplyDeleteThe sheppard software sounds interesting. Especially since it has information about health. Maybe I could use that in my class. I think you could incorporate all kinds of things in PE to make it interesting.
