Social and emotional literacy instruction that's natural, experiential, and easy to manage.
This established supplemental curriculum adds experiential social and emotional literacy to the PE you already teach. All It Takes' Notice Choose Act® process moves from awareness to action. Playgility™ gives teachers language and tools to build community, defuse conflict, and develop student leadership during PE.
Lesson by lesson, students build SEL Muscles™ they can use in PE, the classroom, the hallway, and at home.

Three years of lessons, games, and closing circles, built into the PE you already teach.
Playgility runs inside your existing PE program. Each lesson introduces one SEL Muscle™, practices it through an experiential activity, and closes with a student-led discussion. Forty-five lessons across three certification years, for PE and for expanded learning programs.
Each SEL Muscle™ has its own activity, and every Year 1 activity has a game version teachers play during training.
Printable plans by grade band and equipment, a year planner set to your pace, family letters for every lesson, and standards alignment lesson by lesson.
Self-paced training for every lesson, with a certificate at the end of each year, for PE teachers and expanded learning staff.
Tier 1 prevention.
Playgility works universally at Tier 1 with every student. Strengthening Tier 1 reduces the number of students who need Tier 2 or Tier 3 support.
Playgility at Tier 1
Every student, every class. Students build SEL Muscles™ and a shared language through play, inside your existing PE program, so community is in place before conflict arises.
Fewer students reach Tier 2
Targeted small-group supports remain part of MTSS. Playgility focuses on prevention at Tier 1 so fewer students need targeted support.
Intensive support for a few
Intensive, individual support will always exist for the students who need it most. A strong Tier 1 keeps that number small.
Support for California community schools.
The California Community Schools Partnership Program names four features of a community school. Playgility and Building Trusted Spaces support all four.
Building Trusted Spaces gives teachers, classified staff, school counselors, and student services staff the same SEL Muscles™ students learn in PE.
Every lesson comes with a family letter, and Building Trusted Spaces for Families brings the same training home.
One admin dashboard shows progress for every school and class.
Playgility for ELO adapts the curriculum for expanded learning programs, aligned to the California Quality Standards for Expanded Learning.
Where healing happens, resiliency grows, and learning is actualized naturally.
Every Playgility license includes Building Trusted Spaces, the online version of the whole-staff training All It Takes® leads in person. It starts with the science behind student behavior and adult self-care, applies the six SEL Muscles™ and Notice Choose Act® in challenging moments, and continues as a daily companion for every adult in your education ecosystem through the school year. Films from the A Trusted Space® series are included throughout. It comes in six trainings, one for every role on campus:
Included with every license. Districts choose whether staff complete it before the school year begins or use it as an ongoing resource.
Playgility was formerly known as LDTPE (Leadership Development Through Physical Education).
