Missouri's long-awaited K–8 health education standards are here! (well, the DESE Website) This session breaks down what's new, what skills-based really means for your K-8 practice, and how to hit the ground running with ready-to-implement activities for every grade span (K–2, 3–5, and 6–8). Whether you're a PE teacher, Health teacher, a classroom teacher, or somewhere in between, you'll leave with real tools and fresh ideas — including cross-curricular connections, problem-based learning, and real-world scenarios that make students actually engage. We'll also tap into the collective wisdom of the room to share what's working across different implementation situations.
