"Good morning, everyone! Today, we are going to have a lot of fun with some exciting games. Our lesson is all about fun games that help us move, work together, and have a great time! Before we dive into the activities, let’s have a little chat.
Can anyone tell me what their favourite game is? (Pause for responses) That’s fantastic! We’ll be doing some fun games today, just like the ones you shared. Let’s get started!"
“Alright, friends, before we jump into our games, we need to warm up our bodies. Let's get our muscles ready to move!
Everyone, stand up nice and tall. Now, let’s stretch our arms up high to the sky! (Demonstrate stretching) Great job! Now, let’s hop on one foot like a bunny! Can you do it? (Encourage hopping)
Now, let’s skip around the classroom! Remember to have fun with it! (Guide students during this movement)
Fantastic job, everyone! You're all warmed up and ready to go!”
“Now it’s time for our first game: Relay Races! I will divide you into small teams. Each team will have a turn to run through our obstacle course that I’ve set up.
(Explain the course and demonstrate if necessary)
When I say ‘Go!’ one person from each team will race to the finish and come back, tagging the next teammate to go. Remember, it’s not just about speed; it’s important to work together and cheer each other on!
Are we ready? (Wait for responses)
On your marks, get set, GO!”
“Wow, that was amazing! I saw some wonderful teamwork out there!
Now, I have a special activity for you. I'm going to give each of you a card. I want you to write down your favourite moment from the games we played today.
What was the best part for you? Maybe it was running fast in the relays or cheering for your friends. (Distribute the printable cards)
Take your time to think and write, and let me know if you need help.”
“Now that we’ve all written our favourite moments, let's move on to our next fun game: Hula Hooping! (Gather supplies and demonstrate)
I’ll pass out some hula hoops. When it’s your turn, see how long you can keep the hoop moving around your waist. Remember to watch your friends and cheer them on!
Let’s take turns, and I will time you! Ready? (Assist and encourage students while they try).
Great job everyone, that was fantastic!
“Okay, everyone, let’s wrap up. I need to collect your cards now. I’ll come around and check out what you wrote. (Collect cards)
Wow, I see so many wonderful reflections! You all did an excellent job on sharing your favourite moments.
Let’s take a moment to share just one thing from your card with the person next to you. What was your favourite game activity? (Encourage sharing and provide positive feedback)"
“Fantastic job today, everyone! I had so much fun playing games with you all. Remember, you can always think of more fun games to play during recess.
Thank you for being such a wonderful class today. Don't forget to share your favourite game with your family tonight. See you next time!”
