We're entering a New Year and, while some may argue that the decade does not begin until 1991, a new decade of the nineties. Isn't it great? As a child, we hoped to be alive to see a new century; today it's hard to realize how close that new century is. What will the 1990's bring? Personally, we don't feel the eighties were really very surprising, so we hope for great things still to come. Last month we heard a speaker on "Growing Older, Not Just Old." Not a talk just for senior citizens, it emphasized that we are all growing from the time we are born. It is our choice whether we grow old or just older. The distinction is that you grow old when you stagnate; growing older means learning new things, expan- with change: we can fight with all our ding your capabilities, stretching your might to petrify the status quo or we can mind along with your muscles, being view the new as a great adventure and caught up in the great adventure of living. adapt ourselves to it and it to our liking.

January 1990 ith this issue, American Square- w dance begins its 45th year of BY-LINE publication. Started in 1945, it has had five editorial teams and a variety of homes. Your editors are proud that it has been in Huron, Ohio, since 1968 and has grown to its largest size and circulation under their management. Our January package provides a variety of short-short articles, some humorous and some requesting help (See page 53.) Bev Warner has described a couple deeply involved in an unsung phase of square dancing-badge making. Bever- ly Ruuth suggests excellent advice for a new year and a new decade with her article on humor. Every now and then we think the article on ECMA should be re-run and Chuck Broad gave us an great companion piece with his story about three women who saved a square dancer's life. Our fourteenth Professional Profile highlights Walt and Louise Cole, a couple who have made a great contribution to square dancing.

    J.A.M. (Jump And Move): Practical Ideas for JR4H Chad Triolet – [email protected] Chesapeake Public Schools 2011 NASPE Elementary Physical Education Teacher of the Year www.PErocks.com www.noodlegames.net www.youtube.com/user/NoodleGames Heart Links Heart Links are a great way to make some connections for students regarding fundraising and the importance of exercise in building a strong and healthy heart. We use this activity during our Jump Rope for Heart week as a “rest station”. Students complete one heart link each class period and are asked to write down one thing they can do to be heart healthy or a heart healthy slogan. They can decorate them if they would like and then they place them in a basket so that the links can be put together. During class, we connect some of the links then talk about the links at the end of the class as a culminating discussion about the importance of fundraising and exercise. Fundraising – Sometimes a small amount of money does not seem like it makes a difference but if you use the heart chain that is created as an example, students realize that when the links are added together they make a huge chain that goes around the gym. So, every little bit of money collected, no matter how small, adds up and can make a difference. Exercise – In much the same way, daily exercise doesn’t seem like it would have a big effect on how healthy your heart can be. The visual of the heart chain helps the students understand that if you exercise each day, it adds up and builds a strong and healthy heart.

    GAME BOOK Games Bring Laughter, Excitement, Energy and Trust Into a Team

    GAME BOOK Games bring laughter, excitement, energy and trust into a team. Here are more than 400 games designed to do just that at YOKE Club. GAME Just some help with leading games. 1. Make it exciting for the kids. DON’T be fake with your enthusiasm, but create an atmosphere of fun and excitement. 2. PARTICIPATE in the activities. The kids want you to interact with them. If you are not leading a game, you should be participating in it. 3. Give directions without sounding like you are. Use positive statements instead of negative ones. (“Don’t put your hand in the candle wax!” “Only the wicks go into the hot candle wax.”) 4. Use other YOKE Folk to act out right and wrong ways of completing a task. Have the kids repeat the rules in shorthand versions or with one word for each rule. 5. Start with excitement! Have the most energetic, fun games at the beginning then decrease the energy level to lead to a more serious atmosphere for the Talk. 6. Change things up. The games in Club in a Box are mixed up and not repeated. Don’t play the same games week after week. 7. Always have a backup plan or extra games. Sometimes it rains on parades; have other games to add if time passes slowly or if the weather proves to be troublesome. 2 GAME No Supplies Needed: Alphabet Game Little Sally Walker Tag: Dancing Freeze Tag Anatomy Monster Walk Tag: Duck Duck Goose Back-to-Back Mother, May I?

    Recess, Playground Games, and the Aims of School: an Investigation Into the Semiotic Affordances of Four Square

    Recess, Playground Games, and the Aims of School: An Investigation into the Semiotic Affordances of Four Square By Stacy Ann Marple A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Glynda A. Hull, Chair Assistant Professor Laura Sterponi Assistant Professor Charles Hirschkind Spring 2011 COPY RIGHT PAGE Abstract Recess, Playground Games, and the Aims of School: An Investigation into the Semiotic Affordances of Four Square by Stacy Ann Marple Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Berkeley Professor Glynda Hull, Chair In recent times, recess has become threatened by the press for more academic instruction time and by fears of violent behavior. A dramatic indicator of this trend is seen in the increasing number of schools and school districts which have done away with or significantly reduced recess time (BBC news, 2007; Coughlan, 2007; Jarrett, 2002; Pressler, 2006; Sindelar, 2004). Underlying these actions is a belief that free play time is separate, and might even detract, from the work of school. This dissertation study, examines youth's communicative practices in the common playground game four square, providing evidence that important types of learning occur during recess time play. Furthermore, the findings of this study provide direction for curricular and classroom practice innovation. Ethnographic in nature, this dissertation draws from over thirty five hours of audio/video recording gathered during lunch recess, collected during the 2007‐2008 school year, at a small inner city elementary school playground, in a high needs area, of a large costal United States city.

    Recess Revival an Implementation Guide to an Active Recess

    Recess Revival An Implementation Guide to an Active Recess "Physical activity is as important to protecting your health as wearing a seatbelt and it should be part of everyone’s daily routine, just like brushing your teeth!" (CFLRI, 1998). "Recess Revival” is an implementation guide for the promotion of physical activity and cooperative play for elementary-aged children. As a supplementary resource to CIRA Ontario’s Awesome Asphalt Activities, the guide is meant to assist teachers, playground supervisors and peer leaders in the promotion of fun and cooperative play on the playground. An organized approach to an active recess will be different for every school! Existing programs, staffing resources and the playground itself will affect how "Recess Revival” takes shape at your school.
