I am a post bacculaureate student getting my teaching certification in PA. Coming from an exercise physiology background, I was not familiar with Movement Education. I am now taking a class for it, and I think it is great. Is there anyone that incorporates this or does not and can give some ideas of where to find lessons or examples? Is there a time when this is not applicable (ie, age groups)? Or just give your opinion. Thank you!

"Movement Education allows us to make assessments without taking away enjoyment or valuable education time." - Sheila Kogan (Author of Step by Step A Commplete Movement Education Curriculum). The one major thing I take out of movement education is the use of interdisciplinary activities. Using fun activities that get children involved and having fun but learning at the same time.
