Cooperative Learning in Physical Education

Rolling into the second week of physical education for the Quest Academy students one of this week’s themes was cooperative learning!  Being able to work cooperatively with others is a skill that can be applied in and outside of the classroom.  One of the activities the students participated in this week was called Cooperative Hoops!  For this activity the students were grouped by the teachers and were told that they needed to work together with their group to build a structure that can stand on its own with 4 hula hoops.  Once their structure was standing then everyone in their group needed to crawl through the hoops!  This activity took patience, communication, and cooperation with group members to accomplish the task.  It was fun and exciting to see the students working together!
