aforementioned Youtube videos as well as several mobile apps to get the whole family
up and moving. Finally, he has also started a challenge where the kids get a card that
gets punched for reaching specific activity goals (ride their bike to school, be active at
home daily, etc). As the kids fill up their punch card they are given various rewards.
Over the past couple of years, Coach Pirillo has demonstrated to me time and again
that he is an exceptional communicator and gifted teacher. In my opinion, he is the
perfect model of an elementary PE teacher. He is a highly dedicated professional who
knows how to motivate his students to strive for excellence. He is a humble and
approachable person who loves to share his love of physical fitness with others, his
students in particular. Based on this, I enthusiastically recommend that Coach Pirillo be
selected as a recipient of the Physical Education Elementary Educator of the Year
Award.
