Math - Related Addition Facts

 The students were using cubes to help them with related addition facts.

PE - Pigsty

 This is a form of freeze tag.  If students was tagged by the tagger with pool noodle, they would be frozen (stuck in the mud).  They had to put their ball by their feet.  Another student could unfreeze them.  To do this the other student passes them a ball.  If they catch it, they kick their ball to the person unfreezing them and they may start running again.  This game works on passing and kicking.

    I hope this makes sense.

Lesson 1- What is a Pal?

 

Addresses

 In Social Studies class we were talking about the 2 parts of an address - the number and the street name.  So, I set up Tap Street and Cat Road.  The children had to cut out 6 pieces of mail and deliver them.  They had to pay attention to the number and and the street name.  Only a few pieces of mail ended up at the wrong address.
