Lab Three: The Endless Bucket(Superheroes)

For week three my group agreed upon using the endless bucket game to get the kids more invovled in the theme. We did create many different cards that we felt the kids were going to enjoy because they involved certian things that superheroes did. Our group went first so after setting up the gym I called all the children in. They were a bit disruptive at the fact that they had to be superheroes again, so i told them they could pretend to be super villians giving them that chance to become something different. This worked very well and got the children to stop yelling about not wanting to play. I felt I explained the game well and did a good performance for taking charge and start off the game. As the game went on many kids were unable to read the skills on the cards so between reading and running around with them things began to go fast. After a while i told the children to freeze and told them to jump from station to staion instead of running. I tried to incoporate all the nessesary skills needed for that day. Overall I thought that the children enjoyed our game and are becoming more confortable with us.
