PE Christmas Games and Activities- “Holly Jolly Fun”

THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!!!

Inside this PACKAGE are 2O, “fun and exciting” Christmas games and activities for PE or classroom teachers and are designed for use with a wide range of ages for students in grades Kindergarten through 6th. The PE Christmas Games and Activities are a “diverse” grouping of games and activities that range from short tag game “warm ups” to full lesson plans and holiday events. Each activity and game can be implemented in a gymnasium or a large empty classroom space using typical PE equipment with a few extra “Christmassy” additions to keep it “in the spirit of the season!”

The games and activities were developed to address the National PE Standards and will complement and reinforce many of the concepts that a typical PE teacher would use throughout the school year. These concepts include the cardiovascular and muscular fitness, agility, speed, listening, following directions, cooperation and sportsmanship. The PE Christmas Games and Activities are ideal to implement during the weeks leading up to your winter holidays. They will naturally spark student excitement during the “most wonderful time of the year” by using traditional, Christmas-related themes and icons such as elves, Frosty, Jack Frost, Santa, reindeer, Northern Lights, and the North Pole.

Students will love the activities and games and they will get their heart rates up and not even know they are getting a great workout because they will be having so much fun. These activities are “tried and true” and students will ask for them between Thanksgiving and Christmas every year. They can be used with up to 3 classes at the same time or as little as 1 small class. They are geared towards elementary-aged students, however they have used them with middle and high school students and they love them too!
