Our Mission: There are four general purposes for this growing, monthly publication:
To
provide an active forum for sharing valuable and timely information to
new and continuing Carol M. White PEP Grant-funded Project Directors,
Central Office Staff and teachers.
- To help disseminate the "lessons learned" by PEP Grant winners to all interested Physical Education Supervisors and teachers.
- To encourage more schools and school districts to
implement a comprehensive physical education program model as described
in the Comprehensive Physical Education Profile (C-PEP) model.
- To recognize innovative schools and districts who are doing great things with and without PEP Grant funding. You can share in this mission by expanding this outreach by forwarding this issue to a friend - And we encourage you to share successes, programs and resources. If you wish to subscribe to this free, monthly newsletter, click here and submit your e-mail address.
Sincerely,
 Artie Kamiya, Publisher PS:
If you are a Central Office administrator and would like to have all of
your PE teachers added to the newsletter, just e-mail me an Excel
spreadsheet with each teacher's first name, last name, and e-mail
address.

Welcome to Issue #6!
We hope that each of you had a very refreshing and rest-filled Winter break in December. As each of you start to "gear-up" for the rest of the school year, we hope this issue of the Carol M. White PEP Grant Newsletter will help encourage you further.
2009 PEP Grant Application: As far as we can determine, the Office of Safe & Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS) is releasing the 2009 PEP Grant application soon.
We believe the grant will be due on March 6, 2009.
Can be submitted via mail or electronically.
Up to $1.5 million for K-12 PE programs.
Extremely competitive, only 50-60 grants will be awarded.
Did You Apply Last Year? If you were one of the 600 or so school districts who were not funded last year, we may be able to help! We have 6 grant writers available to re-work your old application into our award-winning format. If you are interested in learning more, please e-mail me as soon as possible.

Welcome to Issue #4!
Welcome to Issue #4! We continue to be grateful for the fantastic response from the many physical education teachers and PEP Grant Project Directors who receive this e-zine each month. Each of them has found the great PE links, samples of curriculum support (i.e., pacing guides), and instructional strategies (i.e., instant activities) informative and helpful.
Hundreds and Hundreds of Games! In this issue, we have decided to connect you with over 300 streaming videos of games and activities! It's all free, because our expert staff of "PE Web Fanatics" are constantly looking to provide you with the newest and best web resources:
* Tired of playing the same games over and over again?
* Want to see quality PE games and activities in action?
* Want to know more about the "Teaching for Understanding" model?
* Is there a way to tap into your students' inherent desire to play and be active?
* Can you create a K-12 physical education setting with games that are enjoyable and adaptable to every skill level?
* How can you help more students participate in a wide range of sports with greater success and enjoyment?
If you answered "yes" to one or more of these questions, this is your lucky day! You will find examples of these types of games and activities in our "Useful Web and Resource Links" section. Just keep reading and clicking!

Background: Welcome to the first issue of the Carol M White PEP Grant Newsletter!
Share Created Documents and Videos: Another very important aspect of this newsletter is the ability to instantly download archived documents (i.e., Word, Powerpoint, pdf) and view streaming video clips archived on the web. As you and your fellow teachers learn more about the new and exciting directions that physical education is taking at the national level, it is hoped that we will all be able share the existing curriculum documents for the benefit of all students across the United States.
