Games for all ages

Elementary:

2 person parachute – use a large bath towel and have the kids hold both sides of one end.  Use a few items (not breakable) and have them try to flip them from the towel into a bucket, hoop, trash can, etc.

Elementary/Middle:

Fitness Tic-Tac-Toe – any multiple of 2 – Start at a line and then set up a tic-tac-toe board about 10-20 yards away.  Have something to use as “their pieces” to mark on the board.  Say “GO” and they will run back and forth with one piece to place on the board each round.  They can also run without a piece and move their opponents piece somewhere else.

Middle/High School (soccer fans):

Soccer Tennis – Use a low net/rope/anything that works as a net.  Use a soccer ball or volleyball and combine the rules of soccer and tennis to play.  Players are allowed to use their feet, head, chest, etc (same as soccer) to get the ball back over the net.  The ball doesn’t have to bounce, but can bounce once on each side (same as tennis).

UNIS MIDDLE SCHOOL PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT

STAY-AT-HOME DAILY WORK

Hi, all.  We sure hope you are enjoying this time away from school and family life.  As you know, the physical education department at Unis wants you to stay physically active as recommended by the World Health Organization:  sixty minutes every day!  We have come up with a way to keep track of your activity as you take breaks from your other studies.

You can download the excel sheet from Google Classroom (Code: wjek7mg) entitled, StayAtHomeDailyWork and print off a hard copy or use it online.  We ask that every day you do the warm up stretches that you do in p.e. class with your teachers.  We also want you to perform at least 15 pushups, 40 sit ups, 50 jumping jacks, and 3 minutes of running in place.  Check off the box in correspondence with the date and activity.  We have included some optional activities as well, that will keep you active longer.

Please print the finished sheet, have a parent or guardian sign it, and bring it in with you to school the Monday after Spring Break.  If you do not have a printer, email the document to your physical educator so he or she can print it off for you.  You will then be able to take it home for your parent or guardian to sign off.

We are going to miss you this month, but we care for your health and know that you do, too.  Soooooooo-get outside and play…be a kid!

*If you play Fortnight or Tik Tok and you win your level or game and your character/player does a dance, I want you to stand up and imitate that dance. Remember this is ONLY for at home and NOT in our gym!!! PLEASE DO NOT spend more than 30mins playing these particular 2 games as I’d rather you play outside or away from an electronic!
