Time: Instructional Activities

10-15 min. Warm-up: Up,Down,Stop,Go

A game similar to Simon Says. The students stand in the middle of the gymnasium. The teacher will yell at the commands; up, down, stop, go, except the rules are the students have to do the exact opposite of what the command is. For example when the teacher yells "Go" students must stop and stand still, when the teacher yells "stop" the students must run around. When the teacher yells "down" the students must continue jumping for the ceiling, and finally when the teacher yells "up" the students must sit on the floor. When a child messes up they will be called out and have to go to the sideline and do sets of 10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups, or 10 jumping jacks before they will be able to rejoin the game.
