Introduction

Begin class with a warm up procedure: ● Prepare students with daily expectations before entering the gym OR on Home Base. ● 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.

High-Five Freeze Tag

Show How How to Play:

● In this game, students will spread out in the tag square. Two students will be chosen to be the “Freezers” or the taggers. ● On your “Go Word”, the taggers will tag as many students as they can. ● When tagged, the student will freeze like a statue with their hand raised up.
