The text provides them with a solid background on the physical education field along with the ins and outs they need to know to become successful K-12 professionals. No other introductory text so successfully blends the theoretical, practical, and inspirational aspects of teaching physical education, combining authoritative information with a highly engaging style.

This practical, student-friendly text helps students build a strong base of instructional skills as they learn to apply the principles of teaching physical education.
