The PE Umbrella | Podcasting ALL things Primary Physical Education

Ryan Ellis here, the founder and host of the PE Umbrella, a Primary Physical Education podcast that discusses all things PE. Interviewing inspiring practitioners from the education sector, I will be sharing the latest in excellent practice and discussing what makes PE, physical activity and sport such an important tool to engage and enhance the learning of children (across the curriculum) so they are ready to leave school with a solid platform to lead a healthy lifestyle and enjoy lifelong physical activity! I will share insights into what makes the top practitioners of today tick, asking about their favourite PE resources, what activities are a must-have in the locker for any teacher and success stories about WHAT REALLY WORKS! All in all, the PE Umbrella is about inspiring YOU in YOUR teaching practice and providing you with the tools, ideas and resources to take action! So what are you waiting for? Come and join me under the PE Umbrella!

Welcome to episode 144 of The PE Umbrella Podcast!

This week I am joined by Jenna Hope & Yasmin Alexander, founders of The Yoghurt and Juice Network and qualified nutritionists who specialise in nutrition education for children, parents and teachers. As a first for the PE Umbrella podcast, and a deviation on more traditional interviews, this episode centres around the importance and amazing benefits that good nutrition and a high-quality diet plays in wellbeing, cognitive performance, concentration and even behaviour.

Welcome to episode 143 of The PE Umbrella Podcast!

This week I am joined by the superstar of ALL things Moving & Learning, international speaker and co-author of The Kinesthetic Classroom, Mike Kuczala. On this episode, we simply chat about ALL things Moving and Learning and how movement itself is absolutely critical to the teaching and learning process. We dive into some knowledge bombs all about the brain-body connection and how to best prepare it for learning, how to utilise movement breaks and how physically active learning can enhance retention and motivation to learn. Not only that, but Mike shares plenty of actionable tips and strategies that you can take away and try out this week in classroom teaching or PE.
