The students enjoyed playing some "old fashioned" relay games for Thanksgiving!  They loved running in the "Turkey Leg" relay race, knocking down cones in a game of "Hunters and Turkeys" and finally, they enjoyed a game of tug of war!

Winner!!  Winner!!  Chicken Dinner!!
We played a few more games as we continue to practice throwing and catching!!  Second graders love playing "Hoop Pass", which is a fast paced game that involves throwing, catching and lots of running.  Kindergarten and first grade students enjoy catching with the scoops.

Rolling, throwing, catching and bouncing a variety of objects using the correct technique!  Check out these fun games that get the students up and moving!!
Castle Ball:  rolling balls to knock over the other team's castle

Indoor Hoops!!!  A little bouncing action!
During the month of October, we worked on safety.  The focus was on identifying an emergency and thinking and acting safely.  The students were taught that every place they go, there are safety procedures and plans to keep them safe in an emergency.  Our games for this month focused on thinking and acting quickly.  
"Spaghetti and Meatballs"
Students try to put the meatballs on the plate, as the spaghetti (pool noodles), knocks it off.  


"Think Fast!"  Students run to the center as fast as they can trying to get the most tennis balls for their team.
