ESCOLA RAMON LLULL
Activities
Teachers will need to print one A4 page of each colour card, and multiple smaller ones to hide around the room (the number’s of cards depends on how many groups of children you have) you will also need 2 boxes that are NOT see through. Put the A4 colour cards in one box and hide the smaller colour cards around the room/playground. The second box should be filled with shredded paper and individual little chocolate/sweets
The teacher will place the cards inside the first box before the class and pull the first colour out, for example RED. The children will search around the class room to find the red cards (one card per group) they must return the card to the teacher and repeat the colour and object three times to ‘unlock the box for the next colour. This will repeat until they have found all the colours. Finding all the cards will unlock the second box where they put there hand in and find a ‘prize’.
The teachers need to divide the children into groups of four, each group will need a copy of the Map sheet and pens for part one and chalk for part two.
(Part one: In the classroom)
The children will pair up into teams of four and they will be given a maps sheet (document provided). First, they need to come up with a team name in English. Second, they will draw their Action Obstacle course using the Action word provided, They want to add extra actions but will need to translate the action into English, Important: All maps MUST contain command bases
(Part two: in the playground)
The children now must work together to draw their obstacle course in the playground. Once the drawing is finished the children will begin the race: Each person will take a turn to be the commander shouting out the actions to one other team member, the command base is where the commander will command actions from the other team member. The first team to get all team members around the course wins.

Refresh the children’s memory with body parts and descriptive words, Feel free to add words.
Position the students at one end of the playground and one student in the middle of the playground. The objective is for the children to run from one side of the playground to the other without getting caught by the student in the middle
All the children at the end of the playground choose an animal. The child in the center must shout our questions such as «if you have fur run» etc,
If a player gets caught, they stand where they were caught and become’s a “tree on fire.” They can then try to catch other players as they run across the field, turning them into trees on fire. When only one person is left standing, that person gets to start in the middle for the next round.
