Halloween Relay!
This month, our students of 6th grade will celebrate the Halloween playing a game in PE. The name of the game is “Halloween Relay”.
Rules:
- Divide the children into groups of four or five.
- There are four or five Halloween characters that participate in the relay: the witch, the werewolf, the zombie, the vampire and the bat. When each child runs their part of the relay, they have to run in the same way as one of the characters moves. The witch should ride a broomstick (use gym sticks), the werewolf should howl, the zombie should move very slowly, the vampire should walk tiptoe and wave their shrouds (use scarfs), and the bat should flap its wings.
- Each team races to be the first to win!
- The teacher can decide the order in which each character runs.
Ready, steady, go! It will be very funny! See you in class. Teacher Delia

Developing Flexibility
Our flexibility is in our joints
A joint is where two ore more bones connect. We have joints in our head, in our neck, shoulders, spinal column, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles and in our toes and fingers.
We have three kinds of joints in our body:
– Fixed joints, which do not permit any kind of movement. Our skull bones are connected by a fixed joint.
– Semi-mobile joints, which permit some movements. Our vertebrae are connected by semi-mobile joints.
– Mobile joints, which permit a large variety of movements. The elbow, knee, hip and ankles are mobile joints.
When we exercise and warm up to make our body more flexible we prepare our joints for the activities we are going to do. Some of the movements we can make are, for example, bending, stretching, separating, approaching and rotating.
