Fun Yard Games!

Yard games can be a great way to get some outside physical activity while spending time with family and friends.  Below you will find a plethora of games that are fun and require lots of different skills! If you don't have the specific equipment, don't sweat it--get creative and make your own with items you already have around the house! 

Cornhole: In PE class we use a hula-hoop and a poly-spot to make our own boards. How can you create a cornhole board at home without having actual cornhole boards?
 Check out the official ACA rules here!


Lawn Darts: This is another game we use a hula-hoop and poly-spot in PE class. How can you create lawn darts at home?
 3 points for a bulls-eye 1 point for larger circle


Frisbee Tic-Tac-Toe:  Could you use socks to toss? What about paper plates? How can you create a tic-tac-toe board at home?



Kan Jam: Another personal favorite!  Kan Jam Rules




Mini Volleyball
-Rules: Use a volleyball (or any soft/bouncy ball or a balloon) set up a string in between 2 poles/chairs and play 1v1!  Turn it into a cooperative game and see how many times you can hit it in the air in a row!

Wonderful Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday Bobcats!! We hope you are having a great week so far! Don't forget to check out our Virtual Field Day! Today I challenge you to make a fire escape plan with your family. You can simply sit down and have a conversation about it or draw a map. Make sure you discuss a meeting place and how you would get there safely. Have a great day! Mrs. Ham

Fantastic Final Friday!

Happy Friday Bobcats! You made it! We have come to the end of our online learning for the year! We are so proud of all you have accomplished while we were in and out of school. We have had so much fun watching you grow throughout the year! What was your favorite activity or game during our PE time? Mrs. Emert and I would have to agree that Battleships is one of our favorite games! We hope you stay active and make good choices throughout the summer! Remember to be kind, have fun and enjoy each day with a smile!                                                                       Love Always,                                                               Mrs. Emert and Mrs. Ham

Thankful Thursday!

Good Morning Friends, May is Bike Safety Month!  Riding your bike is excellent exercise but please make sure you are always being super safe! Safety Tips: *Wear a properly-fitted HELMET!!! Always. *Wear bright colors and use lights, reflectors! *Ride on the sidewalk when you can. If not, ride in the same direction as traffic as far on the right-hand side as possible.   *If you are with your family and on a road, use hand signals before turning and follow the rules of the road. Have fun and be safe in all you do! Smiles, Mrs. Emert
