JK/SK/Gr.1/Gr.2:

Today, we reviewed some safety and etiquette rules here in the gym.  Over the past few classes, the energy has been great but sometimes we need to be reminded of moving safely around the gym and when an accident occurs, how to deal with our feelings and our classmates.

Island Tag is a great game to test this.  A lot of movement in different directions while being chased can cause some issues but all students listened well and demonstrated all of those skills that we discussed at the beginning of class.  Great job by all classes!



Gr.3/Gr.4:

AWESOME!!!!!  For most teachers, they often spend their time teaching lessons and exposing students to new information and methods of problem solving.  Once in a while, and maybe we should do this more often, students teach us some cool stuff.  Today I was introduced to "KEYMASTER".  A game in which one player stands at one end of the gym and tries to spot players who are trying to hide behind obstacles and locate the hidden key.  I will forever keep this game as a go to and remember St. Jude's students for showing me!!!
