• 00:31 Lacrosse Scoop Game...

  Who says first graders can't play lacrosse? On November 11, we spent about 20 minutes learning to scoop tennis balls off the ground with lacrosse sticks. After our prep time I split the class into two teams and we played several games running, scooping and seeing which team ended up with the most tennis balls on their side. The kids did great, especially considering they have never had a lacrosse stick in their hand. We had a BLAST!!!

• 00:12 Crazy Indoor Kickball...

  On Monday, March 25, we played "Crazy Indoor Kickball". We split the class into four teams, two teams on each half of the gym. The object of the game is to kick the ball and touch as many of the four bases as possible, before the ball is retrieved, passed to two other teammates and put in the red bucket. Teams pitch to themselves and everyone on each team got to kick before we switched sides. I love high scoring games like this, because everyone on the team is contributing to the scoring.
