Children Moving, introduces a process of teaching that provides a background for adapting, adjusting, and modifying lessons so they are interesting and worthwhile for all children - from the lowest to the highest skill and fitness levels.  The ultimate goal is to guide youngsters in the process of becoming physically active for a lifetime.  Rather than simply describing games and activities, Children Moving emphasizes the importance of children learning to move by focusing on developmentally appropriate skill themes that are used in virtually all sports and physical activities.  The intended result is children becoming skillful movers and eager participants in physical activity. 
The Latest Developments in Field Research:This new edition highlights many examples of the latest research in the field, such as findings that suggest a connection between ongoing physical activity and obesity, and between movement and learning; the use of heart-rate monitors and pedometers in learning more about movement; the creation of a learning environment and motivation in physical education; and safety and liability issues that need to be addressed.
Focus on Skill Themes:The skill theme focus of this book guides teachers in helping children develop their motor skills with developmentally appropriate activities that are directed toward their skill level rather than their grade level. Designed for both classroom teachers and physical education teachers, the skill theme approach highlights practical ways of teaching physical education to children.
On the Move Lesson Plans Online:Written by Shirley Holt/Hale, lesson plans, including concept lessons for the teaching of fitness for children, physical activity lessons for classroom teachers at recess, as well as introduction to concepts and skills can all be accessed through McGraw-Hill CREATE.
Basic Teaching Skills:This book emphasizes the foundation for teaching skills with topics such as planning, organizing, assessing,and evaluating. It offers a strong background in educationally sound theory and explains how to apply that knowledge to become an effective teacher. The focus is on reflective teaching, which involves adjusting one's teaching style to match the needs of students.
