  • NONCOMPETE GAMES 2018.Cdr
    WHY NONCOMPETITIVE RECREATION? THE ANSWER: COOPERATIVE GAMES The concept behind noncompetitive recreation can be either hard to understand or hard to accept or both! So who needs games nobody loses? Too often games have become rigid, judgmental, too highly organized and excessively goal-oriented. Have you seen children left out, eliminated to sit out, always chosen last, rejected and wondered why? Many children quit organized sports early because of pressure or they don’t feel they are good enough. We need to find ways for plain old fashioned fun Cooperative games offer a positive alternative. These interactive games provide opportunities for challenge, stimulation and success while eliminating the fear of failure. They foster greater communication, trust, social interaction, acceptance and sharing. Children play with one another instead of against one another. As partners instead of opponents we compete against the limits of our own abilities instead of against each other. Everybody must cooperate in order to accomplish the goals or meet the challenge. The beauty of the games lies in their versatility and adaptability. In most cases there is inexpensive or no equipment necessary. Rules need not to be strictly adhered to. Instead of being eliminated, players change roles or sides or teams and keep playing. Players can work out their own details. These games can reaffirm a child’s confidence in their selves and help them in their willingness to try new experiences. You can bring out creativity and even a boldness they never knew they had. The games can help build a “WHY NOT?” Attitude. NEVER lose sight of the fact that the primary reason children play games is to have fun.

  • Increasing-Activity-Games
    COLUMN: " The New P.E. & Sports Dimension " The column that opens your day by opening your mind Increasing physical activity in schools through the use of playground games by Dr. Joanne Margaret Hynes-Hunter Numerous physical educators are taking their classes outside onto the playground due to limited space and/or equipment, large class sizes, inadequate budgets, and as an intervention strategy in the increasing epidemic of childhood obesity. Teachers still want to provide students with the best possible learning experiences given limited resources and increase children's physical activity levels. Research findings performed by Peaceful Playgrounds (2006) found playground games: (1) increase children's energy expenditures. Students utilizing playground markings increased their energy expenditure significantly over the control groups, (2) increase activity levels in primary and junior schools. Use of playgrounds painted with multicolored markings increase physical activity, and (3) increase student's knowledge in game rules, and sports skills. If these increases can be sustained on playgrounds, it could be a valuable contribution to health-related physical activity recommendations for young people. How does a teacher decide what games to play on the playground that will increase (1) energy expenditures, (2) physical activity levels, and (3) student knowledge in game rules and sport skills? There are many games and activities that have been played on playgrounds for generations. Unfortunately, many "traditional" playground games (i.e. King of the hill, Red Rover) are not developmentally appropriate because as part of the rules, children are hitting, pushing, knocking down one another in an effort to win. However, there are some playground games that offer an excellent opportunity for growth and learning: i.e.

    0 Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing Judy Blume 1 For Larry, who is a combination of Peter and Fudge, and for Willie Mae, who told me about Dribble 2 Contents 1 The Big Winner 2 Mr. and Mrs. Juicy-O 3 The Family Dog 4 My Brother the Bird 5 The Birthday Bash 6 Fang Hits Town 7 The Flying Train Committee 8 The TV Star 9 Just Another Rainy Day 10 Dribble! 3 1 The Big Winner I won Dribble at Jimmy Fargo's birthday party. All the other guys got to take home goldfish in little plastic bags. I won him because I guessed there were three hundred and forty-eight jelly beans in Mrs. Fargo's jar. Really, there were four hundred and twenty-three, she told us later. Still, my guess was closest. "Peter Warren Hatcher is the big winner!" Mrs. Fargo announced. At first I felt bad that I didn't get a goldfish too. Then Jimmy handed me a glass bowl. Inside there was some water and three rocks. A tiny green turtle was sleeping on the biggest rock. All the other guys looked at their goldfish. I knew what they were thinking. They wished they could have tiny green turtles too. I named my turtle Dribble while I was walking home from Jimmy's party. I live at 25 West 68th Street. It's an old apartment building. But it's got one of the best elevators in New York City. There are mirrors all around. You can see yourself from every angle.

  • Games and Activities of Early Settlement Children
    GAMES AND ACTIVITIES OF EARLY SETTLEMENT CHILDREN There were several games played by pioneer children that are still played today in homes, schools, and on the playground. Hide-and-Seek, baseball, jump rope, tag, and string games are just a few. Word games were played both at home and at school, because these games helped the children to learn language skills. Games involving guessing were also popular, because these games were good brain exercises and helped students develop their thinking skills. OUTDOOR GAMES Recess was a time where several group games were played. Boys and girls sometimes played games together at recess. The game of Fox and Geese was played in the snow where the students cleared paths in the snow in the shape of a spoked wheel. They then chose one person to be the fox. The fox tried to tag the rest of the players, who were the geese. All the players had to stay within the paths of the wheel. Whoever was tagged by the fox then became the fox and had to chase the geese. An alternative to playing in the snow is to mark four squares on the playground 10 feet across each square. Every player stands on one of the lines forming the square. A signal is given and the person who is “it” has 10 seconds to touch as many players as he/she can. Players who are tagged sit down in the marked area. All players must stay on the line while being chased. Shadow Tag was a game played on bright, sunny days.
