I just finished teaching P.E. to the middle school boys (6th-8th grade). It's a very energetic group, and not always so easy to handle. Good thing that I have a co-coach, Dan Hanna, to help me out.
So, we've been teaching American Football - totally new and confusing to some, and very familiar to others. It's been pretty fun - eventhough I'm not so good at football. Anyhow, today has been probably the coldest day here so far - maybe around 40 or 45 degrees Farenheit. And it's windy also - making for some cold little hands on those boys.
Cold weather + middle school boy hands + wind = whiny time. It was funny at times and sometimes bothersome - but we made it through. They were running around with their hands inside their shirts and sweatshirts, while still trying to catch the ball. Some of them just couldn't believe that people play that game in rain and snow and really really cold weather.
I think that will help them remember to bring their sweatshirts from now on. :)
