About the Author

My name is Anthony Vekich, creator of the P.E. Gang.  As a P.E. Teacher, I believe elementary physical education can enhance all areas of development. The P.E. Gang was created to teach my physical education students the importance of teamwork, playing fair, being honest, being respectful, and trying to do their best in anything they choose to do. The stories I have written are based on true events that happened growing up and the experiences I have had while teaching P.E. for the last 30 years.

Do You Want To Start Your Own P.E. Gang?

Hello, I'm Anthony Vekich. For more than 20 years, I have been an elementary school physical education teacher and sports coach. We have created workbooks and lessons on character education for grades K–5 with the assistance of multiple classroom teachers. Since kids enjoy playing games, we have seized the chance to educate our children on the value of reading, moral behavior, maintaining good health, and having fun.
