![]() Through the generosity of a PEP Grant awarded to the Portville and Cattaraugus-Little Valley Central School Districts, physical educators from across the region have been gathering over the last year as a Collaborative Learning Community. With meetings alternating between Houghton College and the Olean Main Center, teachers have had time to explore best practices and strategies both inside and outside of the physical education classroom setting. PE teachers have heard presentations on DASA/bullying, law issues in sports and athletics, SLO’s and APPR, and the academic benefits of physical education. In the gym, they’ve shared lesson and warmup ideas, including ways to integrate technology in education, and have headed outside to explore Houghton’s Ropes Course. Together, they have established a Weebly to share information online and have been given access to a Physical Educators email list-serve. Our hope is that they are able to establish collegial relationships that extend outside of our workshops and improve their practice on a regular basis. The next Active PE Forum is scheduled for Friday, May 30th at Houghton College. To register, please contact Laurie Sledge at 376-8357 or laurie_sledge@caboces.org. Students and teachers (of COSER 501 member districts) can access hundreds of thousands of digital resources using CABOCES Digital Kids.
