February Fun and Fitness

This month we focused on our Floor Hockey, Pillo Polo and scooter hockey units, all having similar skill sets to teach on how to control a puck or ball. The children enjoyed playing all versions of the varying games. Safety was a consistent factor in keeping Pillo Polos' and floor hockey sticks on the floor and only using half swings to make contact. Needless to say that there were many penalties for high sticking but the learning curve improved and the children played many of the activities without injuries. Mixed in with these skills were tag games, again focused on cardio vascular endurance and learning game strategies. The two videos captured a moment in our time for floor hockey and a Valentine's game. A fun month as we conclude this unit and look forward to our climbing units.
