PE Teacher

A PE Teacher helps children learn by moving their bodies. Instead of a classroom with desks, they work in a gym or on a field with balls, jump ropes, cones, and a whistle. For example, they might set out a winding path of cones, show the class how to dribble a ball around it, and cheer as everyone tries. Other teachers mostly teach with books and pencils, but a PE Teacher teaches with running, jumping, throwing, and games.

Moving is something you use every day, whether you climb stairs, ride a bike, or play at recess. A PE Teacher helps each child find ways to move that feel good, whether they are fast, slow, or just starting out. They also show how to take turns, cheer for teammates, and try again after a miss. That helps children feel strong, brave, and part of a team.
