Conference Coordinator’s Welcome
Welcome to the 2014 West Virginia Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance
(WVAHPERD) Conference. As Past-president of WVAHPERD and this year’s Conference Coordinator, I
join President Aleta Jo Crotty, President-Elect Keith Bowling, Executive Director Sue Long, and the entire
WVAHPERD leadership team in welcoming you to this wonderful opportunity to reconnect with friends
and colleagues. We are fortunate to be hosting this year’s event at one of the best conference facilities
in West Virginia, Flatwoods Conference Center.
During our time together at Flatwoods, we encourage you to engage in all that the conference has to
offer including the very best in continuing education sessions, access to the top leaders in the field,
opportunities for networking with new and familiar colleagues, and state-of-the-art exhibits. This
conference has something for everyone and I personally encourage all of you to take full advantage.
The action starts on Thursday, October 30th with our pre-conference Young Professional’s and Higher
Education Professional’s Workshops. Our pre-service teachers will benefit from their engagement in a
variety of activity learning opportunities addressing hiring practices in schools, liability and negligence,
safety and concussions, common core and technology, and physical activity breakout sessions. Our
college/university faculty will focus their attention on best practices in online and blended learning.
On Friday, October 31st attention shifts to our in-service professionals with a full agenda of concurrent
lecture and physical activity sessions. There is something for everyone in our program this year with
presentation topics including pre-service teacher training, creating inclusive teaching and learning
environments, online health education, social media use, assessment, and a host of gymnasium ready
activity ideas. Be sure to mark the scheduled general sessions which target some of the most important
challenges confronting our field: school-wide physical activity, instructional technology use, standardsbased curriculum, instructional models in physical education, and common core. Stop by the exhibitor’s
booths in the Conference Center Lobby to chat with our vendors and be sure to make it to the
Exhibitor’s Gala which is scheduled for 4:30 PM! We broke with tradition and scheduled the President’s
Social from 6-7 PM followed immediately by the WVAHPERD Awards Banquet. Please join us at these
important gatherings to meet our incoming leaders and recognize our outstanding colleagues.
The festivities continue until mid-afternoon on Saturday, November 1st with a morning full of additional
lecture and activity-based sessions. Our friends from Concord University will be registering participants
for continuing education credits at the close of programming on Saturday morning. A special thank you
is in order to those individuals who have generously agreed to serve as members of our Board of
Directors and Representative Assembly for the upcoming year. That group will meet for the first time on
Saturday morning to determine their agenda for the next several months. In the afternoon, we are
excited to host a free USTA Tennis in Schools training – plan to stick around for that!
Have a wonderful experience at the conference, and I look forward to spending time together in the
beautiful surroundings of central West Virginia!
Sincerely,
Sean M. Bulger

Message from WVAHPERD President
On behalf of the West Virginia Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance, I would
like to personally welcome each of you to the 2014 conference at the Days Inn Flatwoods Conference

welcoming you to our state conference. We are excited that you have joined us here in Flatwoods for
our annual event.
I would like to give you an idea of what you can expect and what we hope to achieve over the next few
days. First, I would like to say we are fortunate to have Stephen Harvey, Associate Professor in
Instructional Methods at WVU as one of our featured speakers. He will be sharing his knowledge of
pedagogical models such as Teaching Games for Understanding and Sport Education.
Our Young Professionals are sure to enjoy their time in Flatwoods as they attend sessions tailored
specifically to meet their needs. Dr. Deborah Akers, Superintendent of Mercer County schools will
discuss the hiring process, liability issues and negligence. Dr. Dan Martin from WVSAC will share his
expertise on the topic of concussions in the Physical Education setting and Adam Marshall will present a
session on focused fitness.
Thanks to Sean Bulger and the entire convention planning committee, we have sessions planned to
meet the needs of all participants. Teaching jump rope for fitness, active academics, The First Tee of
West Virginia, using iPad for motor skill analysis, common core in the health setting, teaching literacy in
Physical Education, Kan You Jam, and the ABC’s of Negligence—just to name a few. Without a doubt,
you will leave this conference with cutting edge techniques and strategies you can take back to your
worksite.
Let me give you a brief update on where we are today. WVAHPERD is in the process of making
adjustments to comply with the national guidelines of AAHPERD/SHAPE America. We are very excited
about our new website system, 123 Signup. This system has the capability to provide automated emails,
online dues collection, event registrations, and online event feedback. A big thank you goes out to
Derek Belcher who has worked diligently to get our system up and running for this convention. And
finally, we would like to welcome Josh Grant as a new member of our Board. Josh is the new
Coordinator of Physical Education and Health Education at the West Virginia Department of Education.
We look forward to working with Josh as we strive to create a healthier, more active culture.
In closing, it is my hope that you will leave this convention with a sense of commitment, dedication, and
the knowledge that we all can contribute to making a difference in the lives of those we serve.
Sincerely,
Aleta Jo Crotty

Jump Rope & Hoops for Heart
35th Anniversary Celebration!!!
JRFH/HFH Grant Program
Apply for Funding Today!!!
JRFH/HFH Coordinators:
Each year WVAHPERD awards small grants to
support JRFH/HFH programs and events in
schools across the state. The proposal process
requires 2-page narrative that explains the
passion you, your students, school, and
community have for JRFH/HFH. Summarize how
the grant (if awarded) will enhance the school’s
physical education program in a way that aligns
with NASPE Standards and Guidelines. The
proposal also needs to include a sample budget
for the program/equipment described in the
narrative. Contact Mary Borst for more specific
details at [email protected].
On this 35th anniversary, we wanted to take a
moment to thank you for your leadership with
respect to the Jump Rope for Heart (JRFH) and
Hoops for Heart (HFH) Programs that are jointly
sponsored by SHAPE America and the American
Heart Association. The JRFH and HFH programs
combat heart disease, stroke, and childhood
obesity through school-based fundraising
events. The proceeds benefit individuals who
need advanced cardiac care while also
furthering related research. In addition to
serving as important national and state
fundraising opportunities, these valuable
programs promote physical activity, heart
healthy living, and community service.
Each year in West Virginia, participating schools
raise money on behalf of the American Heart
Association. This measure of success could not
be achieved without the personal commitment
and professional excellence of the JRFH/HFH
school coordinators. So please accept our
sincere thanks on behalf of WVAHPERD. Please
know that our members and the communities
we serve truly appreciate your efforts.
At the same time we celebrate past
accomplishments, we look forward to another
successful year of JRFH and HFH within our
schools. To learn more about these programs,
visit the related website for information about
the benefits of participating, registering your
school, state/district resources, and hosting an
event: http://www.shapeamerica.org/jump/.
You can also “Like” JRFH and HFH on Facebook

WVBE Policy 2150 Update
Summary of Changes: Elementary and Middle schools are now required to provide 30 minutes
of physical activity daily and at least 50 percent of class time in Physical Education Elementary –
High School will be spent in moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA).
Physical Education K-5: In grades Kindergarten-5, not less than 30 minutes of physical
education, including physical exercise and age appropriate physical activities, for not less than
three days a week shall be provided as per W. Va. Code §18-2-7a. At least 50 percent of class
time for physical education will be spent in moderate to vigorous-intensity physical activity.
Physical Activity K-5: In grades Kindergarten-5 physical activity in the form of recess or informal
physical activity will be provided for no fewer than 30 minutes daily for all students.
Physical Activity 6-8: Middle schools should recognize that healthy lifestyles and academic
success are tightly interwoven. Therefore, schools should promote wellness activities that extend
beyond the course requirements for physical education and health. This may be accomplished
through programs that focus on skill development, sportsmanship and teamwork. Opportunities
will be provided for 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous integrated physical activity daily to keep
middle grades students physically active throughout the school year. Wellness education should
target the widespread behaviors that undermine the health and resulting capacity for personal
success during adolescence.
Physical Education 6-8: In grades 6-8, not less than one full period of physical education,
including physical exercise and age appropriate physical activities, each school day of one
semester of the school year shall be provided as per W. Va. Code §18-2-7a. At least 50 percent
of class time for physical education will be spent in moderate to vigorous-intensity physical
activity. Schools not having the number of certified physical education teachers or required
physical setting may develop alternate programs that will enable current staff and physical
settings to be used to meet the physical education requirements. Alternate programs shall be
submitted to the WVDE and the Healthy Lifestyle Council for approval.
Page 26
West Virginia is the first state to
have at least one school in every
county registered as a Let’s Move
Active School! This distinction
reflects our member’s ongoing
commitment to quality physical
education and school-wide physical
activity.
Congratulations West Virginia!!!
