Castle Ball

November 28th 2017
Castle ball is a game that I found that can be very fun but should be used in the middle school and not the elementary because it can be a little difficult to understand. So I'm just going to get right into explaining it. First you have to split the gym in half because on one side you are going to have builders and on the other half you're going to have throwers. Now the builders have four hula hoops that they must interlock to get them to stand up. Team building a hula hoops can also designate guards to guard their hula hoops so the throwers can knock them down easily. All the throws have to do is try to knock the hula hoops down. So this is usually played with 3-5 groups love builders or as long as you have enough hula hoops. So the game is over whenever two castles or more are down or under construction. A very fun game and if you have any questions email me them at jaredharden23@yahoo.com

Zombie Tag

Tag can be played in so many ways, here's a way that I found that can be super fun and incorporates team work. Zombie tag is a little different than regular tag by students having hula hoops that they must drag with one foot. One foot must stay in the hula hoop at all times, and you can see when they're playing this that they do look like zombies walking. Once zombies that are it tag the other students than those students become it also and have to grab a hula hoop and start tagging other students. Now because the students who aren't zombies can run around it makes it harder for the zombies to catch the students so the zombies must use teamwork to tag the other students. I think this is a super fun game and teachers should use it in their classroom.

Home Run Derby for the Classroom

Do you have trouble playing wiffle ball in the classroom? Problems you may run into are that it's unsafe, and also it can exclude students from playing. This new Home Run Derby game can get rid of that. It can include everybody and it's not difficult for all students to do. So just like any other baseball game there are batters and there is an Outfield. The batters get to hit balls off large cones, possibly hitting a homerun, and the Outfield my stay out there and get the ball whenever it comes to them. There also can be multiple batters and the goal is after the Batters hit it they must do any kind of physical activity, say 15 jumping jacks, before they can be safe but they must beat the outfielders. The outfielders have to get the ball and must throw it to other classmates, they cannot move after they have grabbed the ball so there must be a person by the cone who can just set the ball right on the it. So the outfielders rush to get all the batter's out and the batter's rush to do their physical activities before they get out. This game is very inclusive and works great with large classrooms so if you're in one of those larger classrooms and you have all these kids this game is perfect for that.

Tic Tac Toe Game For Students

November 27th, 2017

Have you ever played tic-tac-toe with the piece of paper or blocks on the playground or even as a board game? I take it you have, but what if I told you I found an awesome new way to play tic tac toe. As a school Wellness student I found this game during the PSAPHERD conference, and immediately fell in love with it. Involves physical physical activity and cognitive function. The students are in teams of at least three if you have a larger class you can break them up into bigger teams. And obviously the goal is to achieve 3 in a row ,across down or diagonal. If no one is able to get it the students are to continue going until someone has reached their three in a row, or until the teacher says to stop with a time limit. So I highly suggest this game for teachers to play with their kids because it is an awesome game that kids will enjoy!
