Game Changers: Small Changes, Big Learning

Jump into high-energy activities that demonstrate how small changes to rules, equipment, or space can instantly reshape gameplay and keep students thinking, moving, and improving. In this active session, participants will experience and design simple game modifications that build decision-making, adaptability, and skill development. Walk away with ready-to-use “game-changing” ideas to refresh units, boost engagement, and help every student learn through play. This session is sponsored by the Motor Behavior Special Interest Group, where the focus is helping teachers shift from thinking about “how we teach” to “how they learn”, and then applying that knowledge to task design.
