Suggestions to make Physical Education class even more fun!

If there's one thing kids love, it's playing, right? It's the time when the kids unleash their imagination and spend all that accumulated energy that only they know how to have! Therefore, the Physical Education class is usually the favorite and most anticipated moment of the students.

And you know whats is most cool? With Physical Education, the educator promotes interaction, cooperation, rules, in addition to stimulating well-being. For this reason, it should not be seen only as that period of time when all you have to do is let the gang out on the patio for them to run back and forth!

Even if he is not a specialist, the teacher can insert very interesting and fun activities, working on concepts that the student will use outside of school and for the rest of his life. Escola Educação then brought a list of several suggestions that can be developed with students of different ages.

street games

Even if, nowadays, parents are insecure about letting their children play in the street, those more traditional games are still the favorites. And the justification is simple. They are innocent, simple to perform and cost nothing! So, why not adapt them to school courts?

Let's go to some examples?

bobinho's prank

Very simple, you only need a ball and space. In it, the children throw the ball to each other, while one of the classmates, separately, tries to catch it. If he succeeds, the teammate who last touched the ball will be the new fool.

Run Cotia

A proposal similar to hit and run. In it, the children are seated in a circle, while one of them is outside, with a handkerchief in his hand, circulating to the rhythm of the song:

run cotia
at aunt's house
run vine
at grandma's house
handkerchief in hand
Fell to the floor
Beautiful girl of my heart
Child: Can I play?
Wheel: Yes!
Child: Is no one going to look?
Wheel: No!

At this time, the children who are sitting lower their heads and cover their eyes with their hands. Meanwhile, the child outside drops the handkerchief behind one of the classmates. When he notices, the chase begins. The first child needs to take the place of the partner who got the handkerchief. Whoever loses, the game starts again.

Mirror

In pairs, the children position themselves facing each other, as one will be the mirror of the other. Then they have to imitate each other's movements without laughing. Whoever loses, pays a fine. Then, the creativity of the teacher with regard to the “gift” is worth it.

Here's how to do it: https://goo.gl/hQof23

aerobic activities

What do you mean, people, aerobic activity for children? Yes, as long as you do light exercises, it is highly recommended to work with aerobics in early childhood education. This type of activity stimulates coordination, in addition to promoting physical well-being. But, no very heavy exercises, after all, we are dealing with small children!

Take a look at what you can work with.

Rhythmic warm-up activities

This type of activity depends a little on the creativity of the teacher. To the sound of some music, especially those that have repetitive verses, students can do stretching and warm-up movements. Essential before going in with the children for activities that require more disposition.

burst bladder

This game will also work on the physical part and team spirit. Each child will tie a balloon to their ankle using a piece of string. This bladder has to arrive intact until the end of the game. The teacher gives the signal and, from then on, the students go in search of bursting another's bladder.

In the end, the educator reveals that, for everyone to arrive with the balloons intact at the end, a combination was enough that no one burst the bladder of the other. That way, everyone would win. What a moral lesson, huh?

training with cones

This one can be done at the pace of the World Cup! Do you know when players are in concentration and are running between the cones? So it is! How about stimulating the students' cardiorespiratory activity with this kind of game?

In the absence of cones, it is possible to improvise and use buckets or something that stays fixed and avoids accidents. It's also cool to create obstacles for the students to jump over, like rock piles or something like that.

ball in the tower

It works like a basketball game, but it's not that simple. And do you know why? Because the basket is not fixed! The teacher separates students into two teams, each with a colleague who will hold the basket (or bucket).

But, this basket cannot stand still in the same place! The team that scores the most points will win. To facilitate scoring, the student holding the basket can be on a higher plane, as long as it is safe to prevent falls.

Did you see how easy it is to work Physical Education with children of all ages? With a little creativity, you can make this moment even more fun!
