This week\u2019s team teach was excellent in many different ways. The warm up activity was hilarious. I got so many laughs out of other people\u2019s animal dance moves and it was a lot of fun to be silly with a group of people! What a great fun way to get everyone moving!<\/p>\n
The first activity was a lot of fun too. I was confused at first, I think the huge amount of cones set up made it a bit hard for me to visualize but once we got into our groups to play I was not confused anymore. The game was a good way to get students moving and practicing their throwing. There are so many modifications you could do to help enhance student learning.<\/p>\n
The last game was an interesting game. I did not like the unsafe elements but other than that it was great. I was running around so much in this game that by the end I was exhausted! This really helped me to see the importance of an active curriculum. After class, I felt awake, alert and ready for the day. Being active in school really does help students in other areas of academics.<\/p>\n
