Abstract
Physical education is the perfect place to learn self-advocacy skills. Through the practice of self-advocacy, children will find and utilize their voices in the classroom and beyond. Self-advocacy teaches students how to speak up, make life decisions, gather information, find those who will support them in their journey, know their rights and responsibilities, solve problems, reach out to others when they need help and friendship, and learn about self-determination.
