Building Respect, Trust, and Frienships in my PE classes

I am attempting to build more long-lasting positive relationships in my PE classes. I have introduced my students to several icebreaker games, problem initiative, cooperative and trust building activities. It seems to be working for most of my students. I still have a few students that say that these activities are boring and stupid. This beginning unit in my PE units has allowed more friendship to form early on in my classrooms. It is a great way to create a positive atmosphere, learn students names, and personalities of my classes. I highly recommended to all PE teachers to start the year out with this unit. Project Adventure-adventure curriculum is a great place to start

Adventure Education

I like engaging in outdoor adventure activities. Some if not most of my students want to play traditional sports and do not like outdoor activities? This year we started a new course that is focused on project adventure outdoor curriculum for physical education and I have been running into some roadblocks? Students do not have patience for the activities that I introduced and students do not like going outside in the cold and the rain.
