A true pioneer in the field! Next time I see you, @bophillips10.bsky.social, I would love to chat about your program. We did something similar with 3rd-5th "at-promise" students (inspired by the book Spark by John Ratey). #EduSky #ExerciseGrowsBrainCells #PhysEd #SEL

Honored to be featured in NEA Today’s article, “How Students Literally Work Out Behavior Problems.” This piece highlights innovative ways to support student growth, & I’m excited to share my perspective alongside others passionate about edu/wellbeing. #PhysEd #HealthEd

What a quick and simple way to have students reflect and provide feedback. #MeaningfulPE #PhysEd @steamwellness.bsky.social @tallkelly.bsky.social @bophillips10.bsky.social

Rhys Meredith @rhysmeredith.bsky.social · Dec 6

Students in G1 - 5 generated 'What matters most to them in PE'.

Their answers closely align with the Meaningful Framework.

We will unpack what each of these look like in PE and support the students.
