SHAPE America: Society of Health and Physical Educators

Description:

SHAPE America is dedicated to supporting health education and physical education teachers across the country as schools implement reopening plans and continue effective instruction through the school year during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PE goes hand-in-hand with social and emotional learning as it’s a learning environment where SEL socialization occurs naturally through active play, teamwork, and motor skill development. Students learn resilience, problem-solving skills, collaboration, cooperation, the joy of exploration, and physical and mental wellness. 

SHAPE's Resource Library includes:

  • Reentry Considerations
  • Professional Learning
  • Instructional Tools & Resources 
  • SEL/Tauma-Informed Practices
  • Instructional Videos
  • Self-Care
