Outdoor physical education games


















After a few minutes, change captains so a few children get a chance to be in command. Running relay races are one of the simplest PE games needing no equipment. Take the class outside and divide them into groups of 3 or 4 people each. Have them run to metres each before moving on to the next person in the relay. The mix-it-up relay race is fun variation of a normal relay running race. In a mix-it-up race, each person in a relay team will perform a different action.

The first person may have to skip, the second may have to run backwards, the third can run normally, and the fourth can hop. This makes the race more exciting and enjoyable to watch. There are many fun variations of tag that are useful for PE classes. The cops will pursue the robbers to tag them.

Robbers who have not been tagged can release their team mates by sneaking into the jail and tagging them. The game is complete when the cops have managed to round up all of the robbers. Playing this game in an outdoor area with plenty of places to hide can make it even more enjoyable.

This activity is very challenging and a lot of fun. Split the group up into teams of two people that will stand on one side of the gymnasium. Each team will have one person go into plank position while the other grabs them by the ankles. They will attempt to walk the wheelbarrow to the other side of the room. Once there, they will touch the wall and switch roles before racing back. The first team back to the starting point wins.

Duck Dusk Goose is a wonderful PE game for younger children. The rules are simple and they will get plenty of exercise. Start by having the children sit in a circle facing the middle. They will walk around the circle touching each person on the shoulder and saying if they are a duck or a goose. If the person is nominated as being a duck, they remain seated. There are many advantages to teaching basic gymnastic techniques in the classroom. Headstands and handstands are a particularly useful gymnastic skill that can be practiced indoors on carpet or outdoors on grass.

Begin by teaching students correct headstand form — from getting into a correct starting position to eventually lifting their legs and completing the move.

Once they understand the basics and know how to perform a headstand safely, have them split into pairs for practice. After they they have performed a few headstands have them switch roles. Move onto the handstands next, with groups of three one person practicing and two to hold their legs. If you are performing this activity outdoors, use trees to prevent students from overbalancing.

This simple game is a great way for kids to have some fun while testing their athleticism. Have the children split into groups of two and stand next to a brick wall. Have them jump as high as they can, touching the highest brick they can reach with their hand. Each child gets 3 jumps. The highest jumper in each pair gets to go through to the next group, were they are paired off again and will get another three jumps.

Eventually, you will discover who the highest jumper in the group is. You could also have a standing long jump competition to see who can jump the furthest. British Bulldogs is a classic version of tag and one of the most popular equipment-free PE games. The game starts with all of the players at one end of a playing area.
