You know, where you have an actual parachute, and you all get in a circle and hold on to it, and flop it up and down, and run under it and then back out while they play some "appropriate" music.......our song was "Something In The Way She Moves" by The Beatles
I HATED that activity! I still have no idea what the whole point of it was..........and to this day I can't stand to hear that Beatles song.

i hated that game too! WHAT IS THE POINT!!! i really am interested in what it was supposed to teach us... maybe something about teamwork or something??? i want to go ask the PE teacher at the elementary school!
the thing that i liked most about elementary school was RECESS!! it would be so great if they just gave you recess until you graduated from high school!!!

in my opinion i have self assurance PE time must be prolonged because what passes for PE in maximum college structures present day extremely pathetic. once you evaluate the common PE type time today to PE education of 20 or extra years in the past you'll locate there's a very valid correlation between actual pastime and the increasing waistlines of childrens. yet to furnish you a very strong reason to go away PE education as they're I say merely restore or improve recess time. Giving undemanding college little ones higher get entry to to recess has shown to improve the overall tutorial performance of scholars. instructors have suggested that recess enables little ones to blow off some steam and enables them to be extra centred and attentive in college, consequently convalescing their student performance. To our cutting-edge understanding PE really delivers that style of benefit to those little ones who both savour or excel at actual activities. even as maximum little ones if given the chance savour actual pastime not all little ones locate entertainment in depending actual pastime. For those little ones any benefit PE might want to typically furnish turns to frustration and rigidity. it truly is very real for overweight little ones and considering diverse youngsters today are overweight, increasing PE will really bring about higher emotional trauma in little ones.

Yes, I had to do that. I don't really know or remember the point either. I also remember doing square dancing. Blech! Elementary school. Don't want to redo that one.

LOL, it almost sounds like musical parachutes, like musical chairs. I would not have liked that, either, I know I didn't like musical chairs.

YUP! We had some corny song too but I can't remember it. I probably blocked it...like a traumatic experience.

We used to throw foam balls on top of the chute and every one lifted up and down, trying to get the balls to fly off.....I think it was called popcorn.

Shut your damn mouth. That was an amazing activity and quite frankly I don't know where I'd be today, without it. I suppose you were the kid that enjoyed the flash cards, right on!
