What’s new in QuaverHealth•PE?
The QuaverEd team is always working to refine our resources and curriculums. On each of our Release Notes pages, you’ll find an organized list of relevant updates, improvements, and releases with links to more information and help pages.
Resource Creation’s Screen Studio just got way more customizable!
- Screens in Screen Studio can now have more than one page. Educators can add, copy, clear, remove, and reorder pages in one project.
- They can also rotate items to any angle, using a handle or a number, and link an item to another page within the project.
- Audio is easier to work with! Educators an choose an audio player style and create a mixer that plays several tracks together. Audio has also been added to the Screen Studio properties menu, for easy access.
- We have also added a few quality of life improvements, like a File menu, where educators can open another screen studio project from inside the app, page numbers in the Accessibility Panel, and a new Resource Creation button inside Resource Manager, for quick access!
All K-5 Health Lessons have been updated to have new, active, skill-based mindset screens.
These new screens are designed to foster discussion, encouraging students to apply their knowledge to prompts related to the lesson theme. These discussions often lead to subsequent activities, such as journaling.
Explore these new screens by going to your Health Lessons, or by searching in your Resource Manager.
The PE toolbox has been reorganized for improved navigation, with categories now including warm-ups, cool downs, fitness testing, physical skills, and PE interactives.
In the improved PE toolbox, you can also find Teacher Resources with hands-on lesson extensions and printable activities, a PE Posters section, and new PE Interactives!
QuaverPE’s upgraded Jump Rope Unit has been redesigned across all grade levels to include better skill progression, new embedded practice segments, and integration of “reflect and respond” components to support themes such as resilience and perseverance. The unit will also include new lesson screens for all grades.
Explore these upgrades by going to your PE Lessons, or by searching Jump Rope in your Resource Manager.
QuaverPE’s new K-5 units on Rhythms and Relationships help students identify and demonstrate concepts of space, effort, and relationship awareness.
Explore this new unit by going to your PE Lessons, or by searching Rhythms and Relationships in your Resource Manager.
Quaver is making two important improvements to help educators find relevant materials in Resource Manager.
First, we’re introducing an improved search experience that uses new tools to better understand what you’re looking for. Instead of returning hundreds of loosely related resources, searches will prioritize the materials that are most relevant to your search terms. These updates are intended to make it easier to find high-quality resources more quickly.
Second, resources are also being reviewed and updated so they are available only to the grade levels for which they were designed. If your school licenses a specific grade, you’ll now see resources that align with that curriculum rather than materials intended for unrelated grade levels.
Educators can now include Video Instructions within the Notes of their custom screens! In Screen Studio, select Notes, then Video Instructions to upload a video and include a transcript!
When this resource is selected in Resource Manager, there will be a video icon above the preview, which opens the video instructions.
There’s a new application available now in Resource Creation! Screen Studio can be used to create and customize your own Quaver screen.
It contains a variety of helpful templates to get you started, as well as the File Upload, Web Link, Video Link, and Multimedia functionalities from older versions of Resource Creation.
The Student Rewards application has been redesigned, with old buttons replaced with an easier to navigate menu! This is just a visual update and does not change functionality, but if you find yourself needing assistance, check out our updated help page (linked to the left) for a full tour and walkthrough of the application.
Before
After
Learning doesn’t need to end with the lessons!
QuaverHealth•PE’s new lesson extensions are SHAPE aligned and are completed totally free of screens or devices. They engage students’ literacy and cooperative work skills, and, in PE, these lesson extensions tie-in health-related concepts.
Explore these new extensions by going to your Health or PE toolbox, then selecting Teacher Resources.
The QuaverPE Toolbox now includes resources for the Presidential Fitness Test!
These resources include an educator’s guide, adaptation and alternatives, classroom tracking sheets, and student progression journals.
Find these resources by going to your PE Toolbox, then selecting Fitness Testing.
There are now workout videos in the QuaverPE Toolbox!
Find these new videos by selecting PE Toolbox, then, under Category, select Fun Fitness: Workout Videos.
These are available for grades Kindergarten through Fifth Grade!
There are brand new lessons in the QuaverPE Lesson Selection Menu!
These new “Body Systems” lessons help students identify body systems and how to care for them. They also prepare students and their bodies for eventual fitness testing, and emphasize the lifelong importance of physical fitness.
Teachers can now edit the total amount of QuaverNotes awarded for completing an assignment!
By default, a student will be rewarded 10 QuaverNotes once completing an assignment, but now educator’s can alter that reward amount to 20, 30, 40, or 50.
Educators can do so by selecting a new button found in the upper righthand corner of the Assignment Creation screen, next to the Menu and Help buttons.
Students will now be rewarded with QuaverNotes when they complete an assignment or win a contest!
Bronze Level contest winners will win 10 QuaverNotes, Silver Level contest winners will win 20 QuaverNotes, and Gold Level contest winners will win 40 QuaverNotes. The winners will receive a notification in their Inbox, much like how they would if rewarded the QuaverNotes from their teacher, via QRewards.
