 Posted: Thu Dec 11, 2008 7:53 pm Post subject: winter camp sports/active game ideas |
 |
|
| I have a 10 day camp at my school where I can plan anything, so I am going to have 2 days of sports. Other than soccer and badminton, I want to teach them other games/sports like dodgeball, kickball, and freeze tag...can you offer any other suggestions? |

I love to let kids play this game outdoors specially when it's fridged cold outside.  |

| The teachers in my school play a game where each team (of 2) has one guy standing on a chair with a big bowl and the others have to get the ball in his bowl - like a game of basketball but without dribbling (or netball if you know that). I'd like to give that a try. |

You won't have to teach them dodgeball - here it's called pigu, and they'll be teaching you the K-rules.
Resist the impulse to throw very hard 'headshots' at your least favourite students.  |

Is that one of those Mexican toys full of candy that kids hit with a stick break and break open.
Why not make one with your class. Seriously that can kill a lot of time.
I think they are made of Paper Ma'che. You can make the students make a preliminary drawing. Then make with wire and paper Mache.
This will certainly kill lots of time. Make the intructions in English. The art room teacher probrubly knows where to get the material have your co-teacher translate it for you and write it down. Then go to an art supply store and buy it.
With this planned you can easily kill two days The first hour make the drawing. The second hour build the wire frame. The third hour put the paper mach on it. Then paint it.
Korean teachers love this kind of stuff. Just call it studies in Culture |

| Yeah, I was thinking of making one, but I figured it would take too much time. I have some good things that I am doing and I want to allot time for each activity. Nonetheless, I'll think it over and see if I can get my school to get me the necessary materials. |

| My 1st grade HS students had loads of fun making paper airplanes during summer camp. Just print of the template for the 'bullet' as it flies the fastest and furthest. Get a competition going. They'll love it. |

| Only for the brave, but excellent fun. I've only done it in the classroom and not outside etc. You'll need to buy the balloons etc. Well worth it though. I think every adult should be able to make a monkey out of a balloon. |
