I think this was a super fun activity and way less collisions than I expected lol! Students who were shy in other activities really warmed up during this one.

The only modification I would make is having young students turn around and pick their shape so they aren’t mimicking each other.

This was a super fun activity. I really enjoyed how many different ways you were able to play with the parachute and when something didn’t work out I love how you were able to come up with a different way to go about it.

-dezi

I like that your group was so energetic and ready to work with the kids. I also enjoyed that you were able to modify the bear crawls. One modification would be giving them something else to do inside of the hula hoop since that can be tricky for young kids. Maybe try having them do a half turn jump.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how you guys brought back the parachute activity! It felt very nostalgic and was super fun. I loved that you guys were able to adapt as kids were coming in as we were doing this activity. My only suggestion would be to spread the kids out more around the parachute so everyone's height is more distributed equally. Fantastic job! Elle D

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the energy and enthusiasm your group brought! I enjoyed the variety of movements. My suggestion would be to have alternative movements in case students are unable to do them (due to injuries or limitations). Really great job! -Jessica

# data[].attributes.body
Using the parachute was such a great idea! It reminded me of elementary school and I really loved the mushroom idea!

You guys did a great job at behavior management and the only feedback I have is to maybe do arm stretches

Great job!!

Very fun & potential for very high activity level

# data[].attributes.body
This was really fun I love that you encouraged us to cheer for our teams. Next time though I might suggest having shorter lines

-dezi

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked how you guys were able to change up the pace. I also like how many different activities and games you guys did with just a parachute. Come up with a modification to the boys with the kids.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how the energy and vibes were high the entire time! I thought that most (if not all) the children seemed to have a great time and were happy to participate! My piece of advice would be to break the groups up more, or have us do something while we wait (like jogging in place) - Elle D

# data[].attributes.body
I like that you tried to get kids in the groups with kids for our warm up. I also enjoyed how you had it go kids versus adults for the last round. Something I would do to make it better would be smaller groups so everyone can have a turn or taking some breaks because my back started hurting.

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed learning this game! You all explained it really well and I like how you added more balls. My suggestion would be to make the circles smaller/groups. Great job!

-Jessica

# data[].attributes.body
I think the way you demoed this was great, switching from small group to whole group helped students learn the activity.

The only modification I would make is maybe a way to keep balls from getting stuck in the middle, I think it’d be a cool to make it a position in the game!

Emily

# data[].attributes.body
I think that this activity was really fun and can be adaptable for multiple age groups. I think that it was really smart that you guys had commands for stop and go. It was easy to see and know what was expected of us. The only feedback I have is that when changing from one type of movement to another having us sit just because a lot of us were moving the parachute while you guys were talking. Overall, fantastic!

Emma

# data[].attributes.body
This activity was competitive in a fun way! I like that it gave every student a chance to “win” multiple times. My suggestion would be to practice rock paper scissors movements before hand. Great activity! - Jessica

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how you guys had us practice first and that we worked up to multiple balls but I would maybe make multiple groups. Great job!

# data[].attributes.body
This seemed like a fun activity and I was sad I couldn’t participate. maybe you could try to come up with modifications for people like me who maybe can’t bend over or something so I didn’t have to sit out. :)

-dezi

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed the jumping and it seemed like friendly competition since it was rock paper scissors. I also enjoyed that you put kids and adults in groups. One modification could be doing something other than jumping, like a fast walk.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved your games, how there were so many different activities. It was fun for all ages and they were able to participate with ideas. One suggestion is to close out with what the kids enjoyed the best, they really liked going under.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the introduction of the rules and specific hand movements. Hand movements are great to bring inclusivity.

One suggestion I have would be to spread out the kids and adults, because the kids were shorter the balls tended to roll that way.

Overall great job, very nostalgic. 🫶🏻🫶🏻

# data[].attributes.body
I loved this activity, I have never done this before, so it was fun to learn something new. I loved it when you guys had us circle up as a whole group and did one giant round of it. My only suggestion would to give us breaks between rounds for water or to rest - Elle D

# data[].attributes.body
I think this was a super fun activity! Students were really excited to cheer each other on and did a great job with each activity. The only modification I would make is potentially making some more accommodations for littles! Not that they didn’t do great anyways.

Emily

# data[].attributes.body
I love that you guys chose a less intensive activity, as not everything needs to be high intensity! I also really liked that you had multiple activities to do with the parachute rather than just a single activity. I think that spacing out students so height is distributed would have been good so that it did not go so high on one side versus the other (which was not your fault since there were so many of us). Great job! -Kathryn Lawson

# data[].attributes.body
I like that there was so much variation in this activity and we got to experiment with different goals. One change would be to spread the small kids out more evenly and have the adults not lift the parachute all the way up keeping it more at a kid size level. Great job!

Nicole

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked that you connected it back to an old activity a lot of us had experience with in the parachute! The implementation of signals was key to the activity's success and smoothness! One thing I might have changed was to spread out the adults and children so that there were more ways for the students to get involved without the chute going too high! Great work it was truly a ton of fun!! -Nate

# data[].attributes.body
I loved that we started with one and gradually added more balls. I suggest making two groups so that it's more active. So fun!

# data[].attributes.body
I loved your cues, and your hand sign for stop and go, good signals to remind the kids

I loved how you mixed up the different types of throwing the ball, ballon and the height of parachute

I think in a setting that big, you could use your voices a little more to control the group, as it go chaotic with the screaming and the noise of the parachute

I loved it though, and took me back to elementary field day.

# data[].attributes.body
I really enjoyed the pace and team building of this activity. Maybe next time you could come up with your own would you rather movements?

-dezi

# data[].attributes.body
Positive:

1. I love that you brought back something that was exciting and nostalgic for the adults too! My girlfriend was jealous that she couldn’t come to class today so nice work ;)

2. You moderated extremely well so that it never got too out of control.

Modification:

1. I think having some sort of alternative activity for the kids who were scared to go underneath the parachute would have been a good idea, but that’s obviously something that you wouldn’t know until you’ve done the activity!

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how you followed along with the kids to help them remember the movements if they needed it. I love that you made it adaptive for the student with the broken arm and for some of us with back issues. I agree with Derek, the lines could have been shorter- but I loved cheering from the sidelines as well.

# data[].attributes.body
This was such a great idea to incorporate team work and it really fun rooting for your team! Everyone was so supportive and you guys did a fantastic job at guiding us through it! My only feedback would be more teams!

Great job!

-Autumn C.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved your guys game it was fun and I loved all the energy but I would have it set for doing shoot or no shoot. Great job.

# data[].attributes.body
This was SO fun. It took me straight back to elementary school and I could tell students really enjoyed it! You did a great job with setting expectations and prompting students throughout the game. The only modification I would suggest is encouraging students to mix up, I know a lot were coming in after we started but they were all kinda clustered.

Emily

# data[].attributes.body
I loved that this activity involved team work. I enjoyed the different activities involved with the parachute. It was fun going under the parachute and I did not know it was called a mushroom very fun!! One modification could be having the kids spread out because of the height difference :) -Adriana Carlos

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked this game, it kept everyone engaged and definitely highlighted teamwork. One suggestion is to demo the game a couple more times.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved all the different modifications you had! I also really liked how you clearly stated the expectations. One thing I would maybe switch up for next time is spreading the kiddos out more :) -Hannah

# data[].attributes.body
I loved this activity, it seemed super kid friendly and the kids seemed to enjoy it. I thought you guys spread out the kids and the adults perfectly so it was fair on everyone. My only suggestion would to have everyone (especially the littles) do a practice round of rock paper scissors beforehand so they feel prepared going into the game. Great job guys! - Elle D

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the movements you chose us to do. You hit a lot of core movements

I loved the energy the groups had, made it a fun competition

Shorter lines, and one more team makes it that much better!

Great job you guys!

# data[].attributes.body
I like that you allowed students to do a modified exercise if they were unable to do something so they did not feel left out. I think that having a 'coach' for each line was great to ensure everyone knew what they were doing and had someone to help. I think shorter lines to allow more involvement would have been great, but I understand that the room is only so big! Great activity! -Kathryn Lawson

# data[].attributes.body
I love that there was such a sense of team building in this activity. I would say having more teams would make it more interactive so people aren't standing the whole time. I love how encouraging all three off you were throughout! Awesome job!

Nicole

# data[].attributes.body
I liked about this activity used the parachute. The parachute is very popular among elementary students, and I could see that they had fun. I also liked how this activity included teamwork. Something that could improve with this activity is making sure that each student is aware of safety (lifting and lowering the parachute to certain heights, not crawling underneath the parachute when not supposed to). - Noah

# data[].attributes.body
You had some really creative moves in the obstacle course and it was inclusive for the adults as well.

One suggestion is to have more options for the bear crawl because it was a bit hard for the older people.

Overall loved it and would integrate at my camp.

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed doing this activity! I think it got the kids involved and everyone got to participate.

I enjoyed your teams stop and go cues to get students attention as well.

one way think you could do the next time add two parachutes and split the groups up

-keyonah

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how you had everyone cheering for one another! I also really liked the modification you had for bear crawls. I agree that next time maybe breaking up into smaller groups! Good job! -Hannah

# data[].attributes.body
I loved that you used the parachuete. The kids were so exicited. I enjoyed that you did different activites and allowed students to be included such as asking them for their opinion on ways to take the ballons out. My only suggestion was to make sure that everyone was sitting at the bottom when the parachuate was up in the air. AWESOME JOB! - Andrea Espinoza Lucatero

# data[].attributes.body
Positive:

1. I LOVE that you had the kids create team names and chants! It helped build community within the team and helped us to cheer each of our members on!

2. I love that you did each round with the younger kids so they felt supported every step of the way!

Modification:

1. I think that you could have had 3 teams so that more people were going at once! Maybe having a third one in between each of the other two!

# data[].attributes.body
I like that you used a game most kids already know and added movement to it. I also think the group sizes were perfect because no one was standing around for too long. One thing I would change would be to add something on to make it more challenging. - Kat

# data[].attributes.body
I thought this idea was really creative and super fun.

One suggestion is having them do the shoot because it was hard for me to not have it.

# data[].attributes.body
You did a great job implementing a few physical activities that made the students utilize different muscles they don't usually work. I liked how you showed each of the students the activities as they went in case they forgot. The one change I would consider would be to have students doing some sort of physical activity while they were working waiting for the others to finish.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved all of your energy and enthusiasm! I loved how you guys followed along with us as we went through the line. You also did a great job at teaching your movements and demonstrating the course. I think more modifications if someone couldn't do something would of been beneficial. Great job! -Kaitlyn

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how creative you guys were with this activity, it was super nostalgic! I also like how each thing you asked us to do was different and not always super easy, so we were faced with some challenges with getting all the balloons off. One thing that could be adapted is having the kids more spread out evenly among the adults. -Anna

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how creative your activities were! The animal would you rather was very fun and let everyone participate at the same! The hula hoop game was also so fun! my only feedback would be a different option if you didn’t want to hop.

Great job! -Autumn C.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that you guys did a good job of realizing when everyone was starting to lose excitement so adding the balls was such a good idea! It definitely got students involved more once we hit 5 balls!

I think one thing you could do next time, is split groups up or shorten the circle so the balls don't get stuck as much

# data[].attributes.body
This was so much fun! I love how you broke down the activity when introducing it, allowing us to practice. I also love that you kept adding more balls in, and let us work to get back in if we were eliminated. I’be never played this before but would love to play again! The only improvement would be to have less of the warm up time and more of the game.

# data[].attributes.body
This was such a fun activity that I've never played before. I like how there was a lot of variability and changes that could be implemented throughout to change it up. I would suggest having a few smaller groups so that there is more interaction. Great job!

Nicole

# data[].attributes.body
I had never heard of this game, so thank you for bringing something New and exciting to the class

I loved the competition of trying to get you neighbor out, and getting more people involved by adding more balls

I think if you enforced everyone to keep their legs open and ref it, would've made it even. I even cheated.

# data[].attributes.body
I like that you guys did group stretches before your activity together and that we were all counting together, creating a group feeling. I think that the modifications you guys made were also age-appropriate. My only piece of advice would be to make smaller teams and have multiple run-throughs per person. Overall, amazing!

Emma

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked how everyone got so excited. I also liked how you had the fun warm up and Andrea and Noah demonstrating. I think next time I would maybe add some variations of the game! Great job :)

# data[].attributes.body
You did an amazing job explaining the rules and prepairing students for the activity with clear insturction. I would recomend splitting the large circle into many smaller groups to get more engagement! Great work!!

-Nate

# data[].attributes.body
Really interactive and fun activity. It really reminded me of when I was in elementary school. I also really loved how you brought in students ideas and asked for them to try and problem solve. One thing I would change is making it 1 teacher 1 student around the parachute so its more balanced on both sides.

- Lizbeth

# data[].attributes.body
I like that this activity involved racing and teamwork! Additionally, the cheering was a great way to boost energy and help the children feel welcome! One thing I would change is allowing for the people waiting in line to be doing different kinds of stretches or warm-ups, in order to stay active before and after their turn. - Noah

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the warm up at the beginning and how enthusiastic you all were during our obstacle course. I loved that this involved a variety of exercises and being able to do the hula hoop. One modification would be shorter lines :) I loved the activity !! -Adriana Carlos

# data[].attributes.body
Hey guys! I really enjoyed this activity, and I really liked how it included the entire class. I liked how you gave us options to interact with the parachute (adding in balls and balloons). One thing that could be included to make it more physically engaging is to all lift up and then walk in and make a big bubble outwards. Overall, great choice and activity and great leadership! :) -Terri

# data[].attributes.body
I appreciated that you had us get into small groups at first to practice. I also think it was great how you added in more balls when you realized one ball was too easy. One thing I would change would be to make two groups instead of one big one, because it was hard for some kids to hit the balls all the way across the circle. Great job! -Kat

# data[].attributes.body
This was so fun!! I loved how friendly and competitive it was. I love that we had multiple chances to win and play. I also loved your warm up!!

# data[].attributes.body
I loved your activity the energy was high and the groups were just the right size! One adjustment I would make would be to have a tournament of teams or rotate so that the challengers would change throughout the activity.

Amazing work, I had a ton of fun!!

# data[].attributes.body
I loved this game. such an easy set up and clean up

I loved the competition and trying to get top the other side as fast as possible

I don't have anything. this was really fun

# data[].attributes.body
I love this adaptation of rock paper scissors. I liked the would you rather video warmup as well. One change I would make is having an alternative for the really small kids who didn't know how to play. Great job!

Nicole

# data[].attributes.body
I liked bridge ball, I personally have never played it before so it was a new game for me. I think that it was really fun when you guys put the students in the middle and they were supposed to get us out. The only feedback I have is to spend less time in the practice stage. Overall, amazing!

Emma

# data[].attributes.body
I absolutely loved this one I think everyone had a chance to get involved.

I enjoyed how you guys broke the teams up and tried to get us even on student to teacher ratio

I think one thing for next time is to give safety rules because a lot of people kept running into each other and or hitting the hula hoop!

-Keyonah

# data[].attributes.body
I loved that you were hyping up all the kids and getting them excited. I also think the activities you did in the obstacle course were perfect. One thing I would change would be to make more than two groups so that they're not standing around for too long. Good job! -Kat

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked that your warm up was us building skills we would need for the activity itself. I think that it was great to have a way to keep the people who were 'out' engaged by allowing them the opportunity to get back 'in' as well! I think smaller groups or more balls would be perfect for more engagement! Fun activity! -Kathryn Lawson

# data[].attributes.body
You guys did so good! I love that you were supporting students with all the different activites. Especially all the cheering you guys did. The energy was amazing. One suggestion that I might give is to task students waiting in line do an activity to remain warm and exicited. GREAT JOB! - Andrea Espinoza Lucatero

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how encouraging you guys were with hyping everyone up! I could see how this was getting the younger ones more engaged and having fun. One adaptation that could be added is more alternative options for those who can't do a certain movement. I heard you say that anyone can do skipping instead of bear crawl, but I don't think everyone heard that at first. Great work!!

-Anna

# data[].attributes.body
This was very nostalgic for me I remember doing parachute activities in elementary school. It seemed like all the kids had a blast with this activity and I thought it was super fun! I think some modifications would have been beneficial! Also spacing out the kids a little better so they weren't all on one side! -Kaitlyn

-

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how engaging your activity was for all the kids! Great job coming up with different movements for them to do. One thing I would change would be to alternate teachers and students. Good job! -Kat

# data[].attributes.body
I liked the warm-up video you guys had and how you were demoing it for the students. I also liked the hula-hoop game as well very entertainging. The only feedback I have is to same the number for the groups before you send people off. Overall, amazing!

Emma

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how this activity had some friendly competition! Additionally, I liked how at the end the children were against the teachers. This was fun for both us and them. One thing I would change is to encourage the children to hit the ball as hard as they can because although they can't hit very hard, they probably could have tried to hit harder so that they participated and enjoyed it a little more (specifically for the tiny kids). - Noah

# data[].attributes.body
Hey guys! I thought this activity was so much fun and I liked that it was slightly competitive. I enjoyed the different movements and thought it was physically interactive. The only thing that could've been modified is to have smaller teams. But great job and leadership! -Terri

# data[].attributes.body
Positive:

1. I think warming up with groups of 3 was a great idea! It helped the students that were unfamiliar with the motion to practice a little bit!

2. I think having the students go against the teachers at the end was super fun and a great way to boost the student’s confidence!

Modification:

1. I think some of the kids (and me) probably needed a reminder not to hit the balls too hard.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the warm-up was related straight to the activity. The kids got to practice safely and I loved that you let the kids get the ball and throw it to the teacher. One motification is to remind students to toss not to throw the ball. GREAT JOB! - Andrea Espinoza Lucatero.

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed being able to do the warm up at the beginning. I like how you were able to continue adding more balls. Overall, being able to do it as a whole class was fun!! One modification would be more breaks for back and neck or having someone in the middle to move the balls :) -Adriana Carlos

# data[].attributes.body
Hey guys! Great leadership and activity. I really liked how you added in balls to make it more challenging. The only thing I would modify is to have someone in the middle to help push the balls out :). Overall, great activity! -Terri

# data[].attributes.body
Amazing job! I loved how enthusiastic your group was and how you walked every person through the course alongside them. I also loved how you adjusted it depending on the student's physical level. For example not making everyone bear crawl if they couldn't. One thing I would change is making it so multiple people could go so maybe instead of waiting until the person comes back the next person could go once the first one reached the other side of the gym. - Lizbeth

# data[].attributes.body
I think this activity was fun and I have never done this before. It seemed like the kids had a blast and were really engaged with chasing the ball! I think smaller group would have beneficial so the kids get the ball more often and don't tap out. -Kaitlyn

# data[].attributes.body
I loved this activity, it was really fun to see all the smilies on all the kids faces! It was a really good idea to have one student, one teacher when lined up, that really helped even things out. One adaptation that might help is encourage the students to pass the ball towards other students who haven't touched the ball yet. I noticed that some students were upset that the ball never came to them. Overall great job!! -Anna

# data[].attributes.body
Hey guys! I really enjoyed this activity and the warm up was such a great idea and made it even more exciting! I really liked how it was also competitive. The only thing I would change or add it so have students go at the same time or wait for students to pay attention before the other team starts. Overall great activity and leadership! -Terri :)

# data[].attributes.body
Positive:

1. I loved the warm up video at the beginning and I thought you all did a great job modeling for us!

2. Breaking us up into smaller groups really helped us to bond with specific kids while playing the games with them!

Modification:

1. I think the littler kids could have used a buddy to help them figure out when it was their turn to go, but a lot of us were able to make that modification for them as we went through the activity!

# data[].attributes.body
This was super fun! The kids seemed to really engage and have a blast with this one! I loved seeing the kids engaged with this activity. I think a different warm up would have been better but I still think the kids had fun! -Kaitlyn

# data[].attributes.body
I enjoyed being able to critically think quickly and do a quick movement. This is an activity that it easy to understand and I love how everyone was able to participate. One modification is making them walk then hop for the younger grade level :)) -Adriana Carlos

# data[].attributes.body
I loved how you had us arranged with one student between 2 teachers to keep the circle even. I also loved how you slowly added more balls as the students got more used to the game. One thing you could change is making it so every kid got the ball because I noticed one kid sat down after a while of waiting for the ball. Maybe this can be solved by adding more balls or making smaller groups.

-Lizbeth

# data[].attributes.body
Really high student engagement, great teaching cues and a variety of fun progressions. Might need to plan adaptations for students with an injury. Well done team.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved this activity, it was very engaging and competitive! I think you guys did a great job explaining the instructions, I felt like everyone understood what to do right away. One adaptation that might make this activity even better is to encourage the teams to cheer each other on more, maybe even make a team name? Awesome work!! - Anna

# data[].attributes.body
Love all of the different creative obstacles and you all taught with great energy and got the kids excited. I would find a way to reduce lines to maximize movement and help students improve their fitness.

Nice progression with small groups of 3 working on different skills and good energy and progression with activity. I would probably go 3 circles with amount of students to maximize participation and involvement.

# data[].attributes.body
Love the modeling during the warm-up. I tend to try and stay away from exercise videos, but your team modeled and got students excited. Love the main activity. Would like to try with my classes and greatr having a bunch of groups going at the same time. Nicely done team.
