PE Update: Hide and Seek Obstacle Course

February break is here and with it much excitement and possibility. But some things are only possible in PE, such as the hide-and-seek obstacle course that our youngest learners in pre-k, kindergarten, and first grade, engaged in this week.

Students were paired up and each pair selected a bean bag stuffed animal. One partner stayed in the circus tent (behind the parachute) while another partner completed the course and hid the stuffy along the way. When they returned to the tent it was time for their partner to complete the course as a seeker. When they found the animal they hid it in a new location and on the game went. It was the ideal way to harness pre-break energy and unleash it on just about every object in our PE closet. Have an active break, everyone!
