N1  - ABSTRACT :  Though teacher education programs in the US are undergoing massive reform, one notion remains unchanged: teachers learn to teach by teaching. It has been well established that preservice teachers require ongoing experience in order to develop their beliefs about reaching, connect theory to practice, and become acclimated to their teaching role. Though exposure to teaching experiences is a crucial part of developing high-quality teachers, traditional models of practice include the bulk of these experiences toward the end of preservice teachers' college career or during student teaching. In most cases both teacher educators and preservice teachers agree that university courses struggle to duplicate real-life teaching experiences. One way that teacher education programs can provide ongoing practical teaching opportunities is by starting a community-based educational program. This article will discuss how one university added this level to their curriculum by developing a physical education program for home-schooling families. The program background and overview will be provided, as well as the details of the teaching experience; 5
