Last week students in the fourth and fifth grade played a fitness and teamwork game called Action Packed.  Hula hoops were placed in a circle around the room to create a giant game board.  The students then worked in small groups rolling dice,  moving from hoop to hoop, and completing the activities in the hoop on which they landed.  Fitness activities included burpees,  curl ups, sit ups, and plank just to name a few.  Ring Around the Rosie, linking elbows and singing the ABC song, and group high fives helped build teamwork and allowed the kids to have some fun together.   The teamwork activities got some groans from the students during the directions but judging from their smiles, everyone seemed to enjoy the silliness and short break during the game.
