This would happen every year during our Science Fair, where there were multiple days that PE classes were displaced. I used this time with my 3-5th graders to review their fall scores on our fitness assessment, set goals to reach by the spring assessment, and make a plan to achieve them. It was a great opportunity to personalize goal-setting in a very measureable way. Now, with Smart Boards available in the classrooms, it's easy to use the technology for such a lesson. It was really meaningful for the kids, even if they didn't break a sweat on this one day per year. For my k-2's, we either went outdoors for the lesson, or if it was raining we did a "chair aerobics" workout, using a video designed for kids who have mobility impairments. The kids got a kick out of it! |
