🔴Bocce Ball🔴
Ss are working on rolling in #physed today. Roll the ball to get it in one of the hoops on the other side for points. First team to twelve wins. Rotate to play a different team after.

Ss are working with a long-handled implement in #physed today. Four different holes that will provide a challenge to go through. Can you make it in one shot through all the obstacles?
Skyscrapers. 4 teams protecting their skyscrapers with 3 cones on top. Can only throw from their area. If all 3 cones fall, they must join another team. All Ss do not have to join same team. When one team has cone(s) left standing, they are the winner for that round. @kahperd
Musical Soccer. Ss dribble around circle when music plays. When music stops, they kick a goal (either blue mat). When goal is kicked, they must pick up their ball and run to stand in hoop. 3 less hoops than class total. Goal - be inside of hoop. Multiple rounds. @KAHPERD
Transition example in case it helps...
We slide away (from students, equipment, wall), & then freeze to minimize distractions.
These routines are practiced, praised, & repeated, helping maximize our time.
Set those high expectations - most students will rise to them.❤️ #physed
Birthday Cake. Thanks to missrichard_physed on Insta for the idea. Ss are trying to blow out other team’s candles by throwing balls to knock down pins. Guards must stand in front of white line. @OlatheElemPE @KAHPERD
Dodge Disk Tag! It’s satisfies their desire for dodgeball but with a purpose and so much safer because of the awesome @SHPhysEd Dodge Disks. They absolutely loved it. Was an excellent throwing warmup for our 4 Way Frisbee game. Direction and link to the disks:

A fun way to introduce your classes to kickball. The challenge for most is remembering to run and kicking a rolling ball. This progression gives lots of repetition on all of those skills!

Elementary schools across WCASD took on the Kids Heart Challenge! 🫀🏅 At Glen Acres, students dedicated their jump rope efforts to loved ones affected by heart disease. Thanks to our students, families, and staff for their support, donations, and heart! ❤️
⭕️Hoopshoes⭕️
Ss are working on rolling in #physed today. Partners will take turns rolling their hoop to opposite cone. 1pt = hoop rolls and lands touching the cone, 2pts = hoop rolls and lands around the cone, and 3pts = both hoops land around the cone. First group to 10 wins, then rotate to next group.
Glen Acres Elementary School Kids Heart Challenge 2026 - This year students were able to dedicate their jumping and fundraising efforts to a love one who has been affected by Heart Disease! Great job Glen Acres.
Stomp and Run was a hit with grades K-2!
Similar to @TheCoachFuller’s Kick & Run relay — but with stompers!
After stomping the ball, the runner heads to first base and does jumping jacks until the outfielder gets the ball into the bucket. Then switch!

"Speedway." Students take turns sprinting around the gym with the relay baton, then hand it off to the next player. After completing a lap, grab a popsicle stick from the middle and add it to your bucket. Team with most sticks wins! #physedgames#physed@VaughanRockets
Kindergarten warmed up this week with a “Turkey Trot” where they collected turkey 🦃 feathers (popsicle sticks), ran a lap around the gym, then put it in the matching color bucket! Thx @kellidsmith for the idea! #physed
