For students that are injured and are not aloud to participate in class what are somethings that you could have them do instead of just sitting there.

I ask the parents to send in participation to tolerance excuses for minor issues. The parents have even asked the Dr to write medical excuses allowing students to participate in activities that do not put the injured area in jeapordy. For example, a student with a broken arm can use the air step or walk with a heart rate monitor around the area of the activity. I have used Cup Stacking, journal writing, writing and drawing using a computer among other things. I have sport articles for them to read and questions for them to answer. This was for elementary level students.

Hi. I am a current physical education major. In high school I had three different surgeries on my knee so I really didn't get to participate too often. When I was off of crutches, my phys. ed. teacher made me walk around the gym. When I couldn't put any weight on my leg, my teacher made me read various sport articles and answer questions on them. I don't believe that the worksheets were an efficient way to grade me. I think my teacher could have thought of something better that involved some type of physical activity.

I am Head of Dept. in a large mixed seconday school (1200 students).I also encounter these problems...what to do with kids who are out of PE for short/long term problems. Unfortunately I do not have access to treadmills or lifecycles. When we are teaching swimming, my female colleagues sometimes have as many as 50% of girls 'out' because of periods. Does anyone have any good resources to use while students cannot participate? What do you do with those students?

At my middle school the students that are out because of injuries still help out around class. They help in the locker room with locker problems or with the students that needed to borrow clothes. When students forget their clothes they are still required to dress. We have a clothing closet that they "check" clothes out from that they must return. Students that are injured help check the clothes out. They also help with handing out and collecting equipment, attendance, etc. Therefore, they are still participating, but by helping out in the classroom, like a teacher aid. If the injury seems minor, but they have a parent note, I try to call the parent to see what they can do, if anything.

At our High School, students who cannot participate are placed with our adaptive teacher (we have an adaptive teacher available each period for long and short term medicals as well as students who require year long APE). Once with the APE teacher, their program is modified to meet their individual needs. If they have a written note, from a doctor that will not allow them to complete a modified program, the student must complete two article reviews. We have put together articles that go along with each lesson that we teach. Each article has to be read and then summarized using a form that we have created. This form is then graded using a rubric that we provide the students. This way, even if they cannot physically participate, they still gain the cognitive aspects of the activity.

Im currently in college right now and was just reading something about what to do if your student isnt able to participate? I think that students who are injured should be given a written assignment about the benefits/ problems with physical activity? All students should be knowledgeable about the pros and cons of living a healthy lifestyle, especially in today's world because being fit is everything now. Anybody agree?
