Tips for Entry

Go to your library or bookstore to borrow or purchase books on teaching physical education.

Order a student subscription to the Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, which will give you a useful overview of the field. Alternatively, you can see if your library has it. Publications such as this one can be ordered at the Human Kinetics Web site, http://www.humankinetics.com.

Become a student member of the Society of Health and Physical Educators (SHAPE America). An application is available at: https://www.shapeamerica.org//about/membership/upload/Student-Membership-Application-2.pdf.

Download the health and fitness app, MyFitnessPal, which is a free tool to help people optimize health by counting calories and tracking physical activity levels. This app will show you how to lead by example of a healthy diet and exercise routine.
