Example of Multicultural Games

Hello friends!!! 😜

Now, we present you an example of Multicultural games session we have done in the subject of Pedagogical fundaments of the game.

As you can see, there are many traditional games of different countries and we are going to explain them: 

Spain: in this game, there are two teams. Each team have 6 cones at the end of their field. They have to protect them because the players of the other team have to take them without getting caughted, because he/she have to bring the cone to his/her field. The team which gets more cones wins the game.

Morocco: it's like the traditional game called "pilla-pilla" but we introduce a variation. The player who catch have to adopt the position showed in the video and he/she have to catch his/her friends. If one of them is caughted, this person have to play the new role.  

Austria: There is a person who catch and he/she is situated in the middle of a circle made by his/her firends with his/her eyes closed. This person have to guess who have changed his/her position in the circle.

Colombia: The same circle and another person who catch saying "tingo" but, when he/she says "tango", the person who have the object in his/her hands will be the catcher.

The importance of warm-up in our classes

Hii!!! 😄😄

Do you think that warming up is important as an introduction of physical education classes? The answer is YES, but why?

In our classes, we begin the session by the warm-up, with the joint mobility and general dynamic movements, using games, which prepare use for the main part of the session in terms of effort and intensity. We use it to prepare our muscles and cardiorespiratory system.

Below we show a PDF about the warm-up which it also contains some proposals of joint mobility and stretching exercises:

In addition, are you making a good warm-up to your students?? How can we know it?
There are several opinions about which kind of warm-up is the best (static, dynamic, foam roller, etc.)
What do you thing about which is the best and why?

For example, we also present you a video about twenty tips to warm-up. This don't mean they are the best, since he should consider which sport we are going to play.
