Overview

Overview

Week Eight brings together listening skills, creativity, resilience, and movement through a playful mix of imaginative tasks and physical challenges. The week begins with Simon Says with a Twist, a lively listening game that strengthens students’ coordination, self-control, and ability to follow instructions while adding fun, creative movements. Students then shift into thoughtful self-expression with Animal I Would Be, drawing and describing an animal they admire, which helps them explore personal qualities, imagination, and communication in a supportive environment.

‍

The week continues with full-body engagement through The Amazing Bank Robbery, an exciting story-driven fitness adventure that encourages students to act, move, and imagine their way through each challenge. To finish, students participate in Resilience Rock Toss, a reflective activity where they share moments of perseverance and celebrate their own growth. Together, these activities nurture confidence, self-expression, emotional awareness, and physical development. Week Eight creates a dynamic environment where students can use their imagination, strengthen important life skills, and connect with their peers, all through joyful, active play.
