Today I am linking up with Allie at The Gypsy Teacher to Rewind and Retell about something we did in class this past year.
This rewind and retell goes alllllllll the way back to September of last year. I remember it was cool enough that we wouldn't melt outside (finally) and we were all antsy during the Language Arts lesson. I am blessed to have a door that leads from my classroom right outside to a decent sized grassy area so I opened the door and said "come on!" We went outside and played a little game I made up on the spot. If I said aloud a verb, students had to act it out while coming toward me. If I said a word that was a noun, they had to freeze. If they missed it they went back to the beginning. It was kind of like Mother May I or Freeze with nouns and verbs. It served two purposes, we moved and we learned. It was also a lot of fun to laugh at the kids.
Be sure to check out The Gypsy Teacher for more fun link ups this summer.
