    Elementary PE Teacher

    This short yet powerful read is perfect for anyone teaching or not who are looking to better themselves. As a teacher of 15+ years, this book made me realize what parts of the PE9 I was needing to refocus on.

    I think this is a great book for 1st year teachers and veterans alike. It will give you a jumping point if you are new and struggling or a refresh if you are seasoned and feeling a little stuck.
