the “hospital”. ● In this game, everyone is “it” and will be trying to tag each other while also trying not to get tagged. ● If tagged, the student will take one hand and cover up a shoulder, like a band aid. If tagged a second time, they will cover up the other shoulder, arms crossed on their chest. ● If tagged a third time, they will put their hands in the air, leave the game to the “hospital” to get healed. To get back into the game, students must do a movement-based consequence, like squats, push-ups, or jumping jacks. The can re-enter the game ● If students run outside of the boundaries, have them add a “band aid” as if they were tagged. Choose three students to help model the rotation of getting tagged, putting on band aids, and going to the “hospital” to get back into the game. Ask the following:? ● How challenging was it to not get tagged? ● Find your pulse on your neck or chest…what is your heart doing? ● Where can we play this game during recess? Strength/Flexibility/Endurance Stations ● Split students up into groups based on stations with even numbers for partners, assigning each group to a station. ● The main stations will test one of the health components: ○ Muscular Strength: Push Up ○ Cardiovascular Fitness: Agility Run ○ Muscular Endurance: Curl Up Variation ○ Flexibility: Sit and Reach ● Other stations can consist of: ○ Bowling Pins or Paddles and Balloons (practice striking) ○ JumpRope While playing, pause the game and model what happens when two taggers tag at the same time(RSB). The less successful student will get a band aid. Change up the movement (skipping, running, hopping) to challenge them.

Review what each station looks like with a student who can help model each station. Depending on time and skill level, limit stations or make groups larger so they are able to get through all of the stations.
