min warm/Instant Activity: flag steal
Materials
Needed:
Cones for general space boundaries and for "the stolen flag/safe area",
two velcro flags, one flag belt for each student
Description
of Idea
Have
each student put on the flag belt and then attach the two flags so they
are hanging from their hips. On the signal, students are to move throughout
the playing space (i.e., walking, skipping) trying to steal as many flags
as possible from other students in the playing area.
Upon
stealing a flag students are to go to the
stolen flag/safe area
(coned off area in the middle or outside of playing area) and drop the
flag. They can either go back out and try to get more flags or they can
put flags on their empty belt if they had one stolen. No students are eliminated.
Activity stops on teachers signal.
Teaching
Suggestions:
1.
Give feedback to those making nice dodges to avoid getting a flag taken.
2.
Take resting pulse before and after activity to see how this activity raises
heart rate.
3.
Do not let students protect their belts with their hands. They need to
use their dodging skills.
4.
Set up boundary cones so they are AWAY from walls.
5.
Make sure students can already move safely in general space with others
before doing this activity.
6.
Start the activity off by walking. Then change to more difficult
locomotor movements, as you are satisfied with

There will be no arguing with the refs. Boundaries are made with cones.
