In this episode, I read the introduction to my book Becoming a Distinguished Physical Education Teacher. This book was written to help PE teachers reflect on their practice, grow in their craft, and elevate the role of physical education in schools.

In the introduction, I share:

Why I wrote this book
What makes physical education a unique and powerful subject
How instructional practices in PE can shift from outdated traditions to student-centered learning
The themes and structure of the book
What readers can expect from future chapters

Whether you’re a veteran PE teacher, just entering the field, or someone who supports PE educators, this book — and this episode — is for you. Let’s set the stage for a year of meaningful growth and reflection.
