Music is a powerful stimulant for the mind, body, and soul. PE teachers have implemented music and dance into their curriculum in a number of creative, fun ways to get kids moving and active. It is incredibly important for me to create a welcoming and safe space for my students.. and music could help me do so! Playing music not only helps encourage engagement and participation, but it also reduces feelings of anxiety and stress, helps children regulate their emotions, and improves their concentration and on-task behavior. Music in my PE classes will help encourage my students and create a fun atmosphere for activities!
