Happy belated birthday America!

I was a little worried that no one would show up today, seeing as it is the day after the fourth of July.  A lot of people tavel, and don't want to have duties to attend to.  Luckily, I had a great turn out and we had a lot of fun today.  The first thing that I had the kids do was to run.  They ran three laps and then skipped two laps.  Lastly they shasayed forward and backward two time.  After the ran they stretched.  We stretch legs, arms, and well pretty much everything get a good stretch.  Once we got done stretching I drew some circles on the floor.  You may be thinking that, that is kind of weird.  Well, to make sense of it, we played a little game of circle tag.  The kids had to stay in the circle while they ran around, and one person was the doing the tagging.  It was a quite a bit of fun for everyone.  After we played that game we did some more running, and some physical fitness practice.  I just wanted to see how they would do with some random practice testing.  They all did really well I thought.  After we did that I set up a sort of an obstacle course.  The kids had to jump down the tumble track, then they had to jump into the pit.  They then jumped over some spring boards, and then they crawled under a mat.  After that they ran and got over the low bars, however they possibly could.  Then they ran to the vault and climbed over it, and ran back to the tumble track.  It was a good time.  Pictures show the cirlce game being played.


Lesson I learned today: When your happy and having fun, the kids seem to be happier and having more fun.
