This review is from: Teaching Cues for Sport Skills for Secondary School Students (3rd Edition) (Fronske Series) (Paperback)

This is a great resource for new PE teachers who do not know everything about every sport. Good review if you haven't taught an activity in a while.

This review is from: Teaching Cues for Sport Skills for Secondary School Students (4th Edition) (Paperback)

I was able to take 4 classes from the author of this book, and the methods of teaching sports skills found in the book is the way she teaches them herself. Teaching with cues is a very effective way of teaching sports skills to any age group. The concepts are simple and easy for anyone to learn by using the methods explained in this book. A must have for anyone who teaches sport skills in any situation.
