Theme

Intro to PE and Recess

Games and Activities

Coach Choice: Circle Game and Everyone’s It Tag

I can… K: Follow directions the first time and understand class rules.

1st: Be responsible with space during activities and follow the routines during PE. 2nd: Be responsible by following classroom routine and practice PE/Playworks skills with just a few reminders from the teacher.

Materials/ Space Needed

Home Base (Baseline, Sideline or Circle with paint or cones to mark boundary)

Vocabulary Home Base: The area everybody meets to learn new games and debrief what you have learned in PE/Playworks. The coach asked the students to meet at Home Base to learn a new game. Responsible: Able to be trusted to do what is right or to do the things expected or required. A responsible student listens to directions the first time. Introduction

Begin class with a warm up procedure: ● Prepare students with daily expectations before entering the gym OR on Home Base. Quickly introduce yourself and let them know how much fun they’re going to have! ● Warm up procedure may include several laps around the gym, stretching routine, or another quick, movement based activity. ● Back at Home Base, review rules/expectations of the school and PE/Playworks with explicit examples when appropriate. How will we be safe/kind/responsible in PE today? ● Review any other specific reminders needed for the day. Before releasing for the first game, use a Sequence Touch: ● The object of this activity is for students to remember and tag all of the objects that you list off and return as quickly as possible to Home Base. ● List off several objects, such as “ the brick wall, a cone, and something blue ” or any combination that is available for students to safely tag in

21

your gym. ● On your “Go Word”, students will safely run and tag each color or object and return to the Home Base. Make sure students understand how they will safely move between objects (head up, running/skipping safely, etc.). ● Before you say the “Go Word”, have them repeat the objects back to you. ● While students are going between objects, positively praise those who are following directions and encourage those who aren't. Once they return to Home Base, explain to students you will use a Sequence Touch between activities all year. ● Review boundaries where students will be playing the game (circle). ● Choose a circle game that helps students learn names and listen to instructions. Practice the chosen circle game ● Make sure students understand the rules of the game ● While playing, use natural pauses to teach or review expectations in class: ○ Bathroom/drink policy Coach Choice: Circle Game

Return to Home Base and ask the following: ● How did you follow directions during this game? ● How were you responsible for your space during this game? ● Why is it important to follow our school rules?

Use a Sequence Touch to get students back to Home Base.

Everyone’s It Tag

Show How How to Play:

● Review the boundaries of where students can play tag (ideally big enough for safety and small enough for engagement) ● Because everyone will be “it” in this game, review how to tag safely with student volunteers ○ Using “butterfly fingers” and USA locations (Upper back, shoulders and arms) ● The object of the game is to see how many students you can tag. Nothing happens when someone is tagged–just continuous safe movement and tagging. ● Students will keep track of how many people they tag and when you freeze the game, ask who got over 10…20…etc. ● Before you reset the game with your “Go Word”, challenge them to

22

beat their previous score.

Practice andPlay

Practice a quick round to see if they know the boundaries, how to tag safely, and if they understand adding up their tags. Play for a minute or two each round until it’s time to debrief and line up.

Games and Activities

Coach Choice: Circle Game and Everyone’s It Tag

I can… 3rd: Be responsible for teacher-directed activities. 4th: Be responsible in independent activities.

5th: Be responsible/respectful with peers and adults during activities.

Materials/ Space Needed

Home Base (Baseline, Sideline or Circle with paint or cones to mark boundary)

Vocabulary Home Base: The area everybody meets to learn new games and debrief what you have learned in PE/Playworks. The coach asked the students to meet at home base to learn a new game. Responsible: Able to be trusted to do what is right or to do the things expected or required. A responsible student listens to directions the first time.

Introduction

Begin class with a warm up procedure: ● Prepare students with daily expectations before entering the gym OR on Home Base. Quickly introduce yourself and let them know how much fun they’re going to have! ● Warm up procedure may include several laps around the gym, stretching routine, or another quick, movement based activity. ● Back at Home Base, review rules/expectations of the school and PE/Playworks with explicit examples when appropriate. How will we be safe/kind/responsible in PE today? ● Review any other specific reminders needed for the day. Before releasing for the first game, use a Sequence Touch: ● The object of this activity is for students to remember and tag all of the objects that you list off and return as quickly as possible to Home Base. ● List off several objects, such as “ the brick wall, a cone, and something blue ” or any combination that is available for students to safely tag in your gym. ● On your “Go Word”, students will safely run and tag each color or object and return to the Home Base. Make sure students understand how they will safely move between objects (head up, running/skipping safely, etc.).

24

● Before you say the “Go Word”, have them repeat the objects back to you. ● While students are going between objects, positively praise those who are following directions and encourage those who aren't. Once they return to Home Base, explain to students you will use a Sequence Touch between activities all year.

Coach Choice: Circle Game

Show How How to Play:

● Review boundaries where students will be playing the game (circle). ● Choose a circle game that helps students learn names and listen to instructions. Practice the chosen circle game ● Make sure students understand the rules of the game ● While playing, use natural pauses to teach or review expectations in class: ○ Bathroom/drink policy ○ Go Word and Stop procedures ○ School rules related games Return to Home Base and ask the following: ● How did you follow directions during this game? ● How were you responsible for your space during this game? ● Why is it important to follow our school rules? ● Review the boundaries of where students can play tag (ideally big enough for safety and small enough for engagement) ● Because everyone will be “it” in this game, review how to tag safely with student volunteers ○ Using “butterfly fingers” and USA locations (Upper back, shoulders and arms) ● The object of the game is to see how many students you can tag. Nothing happens when someone is tagged–just continuous safe movement and tagging. ● Students will keep track of how many people they tag and when you freeze the game, ask who got over 10…20…etc. ● Before you reset the game with your “Go Word”, challenge them to beat their previous score. ○ Modification: ■ Have students subtract from their total when they get tagged Use a Sequence Touch to get students back to Home Base.

Evolution and Switch

I can… K: Move with different speeds and ways of movement safely. 1st: Show respect by following the rules during PE/Playworks.

2nd: Show safe and respectful behavior toward other students during PE/Playworks. Home Base (Baseline, Sideline or Circle with paint or cones to mark boundary) 4 Square Courts or Cone Courts (4 cones for corners, 1 cone in the middle)

Materials/ Space Needed

Vocabulary Movement: The act of moving or changing positions. We change our movements when we walk in the hall and run outside.

Respect: A polite way of treating or thinking about something or someone. We respect our friends by playing by the rules.

Introduction

Begin class with a warm up procedure: ● Prepare students with daily expectations before entering the gym OR on Home Base. Quickly introduce yourself and let them know how much fun they’re going to have! ● Warm up procedure may include several laps around the gym, stretching routine, or another quick, movement based activity. ● Back at Home Base, review rules/expectations of the school and PE/Playworks with explicit examples when appropriate. How will we be safe/kind/responsible in PE today? ● Review any other specific reminders needed for the day. Before releasing students for the first game, use a Sequence Touch to get them to the location you need them to be for the first activity.

Evolution

Show How How to Play:

● Review boundaries where students will be able to move around inside. ● Everyone begins as an egg, where students are bunched up in a ball,

27

hopping around on their feet. ● Students match up with a partner and play Ro-Sham-Bo(RSB), also known as Rock, Paper, Scissors. ● The student who wins will evolve into a “chicken” and the less successful student will stay an egg. Each player will go find another student who looks like them (a chicken will play against another chicken, the egg will play another egg). ● *Modification: You can just teach eggs and chickens to begin with. Add the next two stages if students are successful with playing RSB and understanding the rules. ● If a student as a chicken wins, they will evolve into a dinosaur, whereas the less successful chicken will go back to being an egg. ● If a student as a dinosaur wins, they will evolve into a superhero, whereas the less successful dinosaur will go back to being a chicken. ● Students will continue playing each other as eggs, chickens, dinosaurs, and superheroes. While other stages have to play against the same stage, superheroes are able to fly around and play against anyone. If they are less successful, they remain a superhero while the other student evolves. ● Play until everyone is flying around a superhero! Practice RSB ● Review the three motions (paper, scissors, rock) and which sign beats which. ○ Paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper ● Teach “throw on bo”, so students reveal their choice at the same time. ● Have students practice against you. Have everyone freeze with their sign and go through the options. I threw paper. If you choose scissors, you win! If you chose rock, I win! If you chose paper, we tie and would goagain. ● You only need to win ONE time when playing RSB. Review stages (egg to chicken to dinosaur to superhero* ) Return to Home Base and ask the following: ● How did you move with different speeds in that game? ● How were you safe with your classmates while playing? ● Where can we play this game during recess? On your “Go Word”, have students meet you near the 4 Squares (or Cone Courts) for the next activity.

Show How How to Play:

● Choose five students to help demonstrate this game. Four of the students will be on the outside corners of the square, one will be standing in line, waiting to come in. You will stand in the middle of the square to start the round.

28

● Begin the round with your arm up in the air and make sure each of the four players are paying attention to you. ● Play begins when you drop your arm to your side and yell “Switch!”. Each player (including yourself) will find a new corner to stand in. ● Because there are only four spots and five players, the student who doesn’t get to a corner on time will go to the line and the next student waiting will join in the middle. ● If two students get to a corner at the same time, they will use RSB to figure out who gets to stay.

Practice andPlay

Assign students to the different courts and have them practice a few rounds.

Modify movement by allowing students in the middle to call out different movements, like “hop”, “skip” or “walk”. They can also choose animals before yelling “Switch!”, so all students move like that animal.

Ro-Sham-Bo Relay

Show How How to Play:

● The game will be played on a semi-circle arc (painted line or cones) ● Two teams (each on the opposite sides of the arc) will line up in a single file line. ● The goal of the game is for each team to get one player to the other team's side. ● When you say the “Go Word”, one student from each team will begin walking (skipping, hopping, or running) along the arc, following the

30

lines/cones. ● When the two players encounter each other, they will play Ro-Sham-Bo to see who will continue along the line. The less successful player will go back to the end of their line. ● The other team will send out another student to meet up against the successful student, playing RSB when they meet up. Again, the successful student will continue on the path towards the other team and the less successful student will return to the end of their line. ● The game continues until one player makes it all the way to the other side. The next round begins with the next two players at the front of the line on each team. Practice RSB ● Review the three motions (paper, scissors, rock) and which sign beats which. ○ Paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper ● Teach “throw on bo”, so students reveal their choice at the same time. ● Have students practice against you. Have everyone freeze with their sign and go through the options. I threw paper. If you choose scissors, you win! If you chose rock, I win! If you chose paper, we tie and would goagain. ● You only need to win ONE time when playing RSB. Do a practice round where students are walking to ensure safety as well as support students reacting to the outcome of RSB.
