For all things Distinguished Physical Education:

In this episode, I’m joined by Erin Evans, an award-winning physical education teacher whose passion for teaching and dedication to her community have made a meaningful impact both in and out of the gym. Originally from Australia, Erin now teaches in Montana, where she leads with creativity, reflection, and a commitment to high-quality PE.

We discuss:

  • How expectations for PE vary across districts and states

  • Designing curriculum that supports health and wellness

  • Using heart rate monitors and other tools to inform instruction

  • The benefits and challenges of student self-assessment

  • Ways to reflect on your own teaching practice

  • How being a reflective teacher supports professional growth and helps prevent burnout

If you enjoy this podcast and are interested in learning more about how you or the PE teachers in your district can earn licensure renewal credits through a facilitated book study based on the book Becoming a Distinguished Physical Education Teacher, please fill out this form or email [email protected].

If you haven’t already, be sure to join our Facebook group where we have assembled quite the group of experts, always willing to share their insights and help out colleagues with their problems of practice. Simply search for Distinguished Physical Education.
