Student Blogging Challenge :: Playing Outdoors!


We are participating in the Edublog Student Blogging Challenge. For WEEK 4, we were asked to be one of several international groups who will share a topic of choice on their blogs. We can't wait to connect and learn about a variety of topics from a plethora of bloggers! 

Our topic of choice? 

PLAY!  

Playing outside is a wonderful way to stay healthy and have fun! 


It is FALL here in the northern hemisphere, but the mild southern California climate makes for enjoyable outdoor fun! We play a lot of pleasurable games during recess and here are three we'd like to share.


Sour Apple






Down By the Banks


Although this silly "Down By the Banks" chant was filmed indoors, it is often played in the shade of a tree out on the grass. 




Bamboo








If you value play, consider joining the Global School Play Day in February. No electronics at school, just unstructured play.  We participated in 2016 and 2015 and will join the global group again on February 1, 2017. Sign up your class and learn more about it by following the Twitter hashtag #gspd.







What are some games that you play during your recess?


Is is fall or spring where you live? How does weather affect what you play? 

Please share a comment about a game or two you like to play. 

Better yet, share a blog post about ways you play at your school and leave us a link. We promise to leave a quality comment!
