We had a wonderful time recording our vidcast. In a few of our classes this semester, we have talked about getting kids active in the classroom. When kids are sitting for a long time, they start to get restless. So, we found that creating a quick exercise video helps the kids get their wiggles out and it also connects the PE core. All students need to be active so this is a great way to do it for 5 minutes in the classroom! Thus, we created "Awesome Classroom Workout!" As part of every grade core, being active and getting exercise is an importanat part of health and physical education.
As we thought about what would be best to do for our vidcast, we thought that exercise was a great idea! Even as we were filming it, we got a little worn out! It's an awesome activity for kids to get them moving and to get them to calm down a little bit.
A potential drawback of this vidcast could be that it could get students hyped up and you would then have to spend time calming them down. That is why at the end of the video, we tell the students to get a drink and sit back down in their seats. This way the students are still listening to the video and getting instructions.
I think if we were to make another vidcast, we would continue to do classroom workouts. Just with this one video, we had a hard time deciding which classroom exercises we would do. SO, we would creat a new video with different workouts that get your blood pumping!
