Extra Curricular activities

Before each gym class a teacher would announce the sports teams that would be playing that day, and then tell everyone which clubs were running after school etc. I really liked this. It gave the class a small moment of community, especially the sports teams. As soon as they would mention who was playing who, students would turn to those students who were in that particular team and wish them "good luck".

The after school clubs were great too, it gave kids time to just play. Not enough time is given to kids to just play during gym class, and when they get home. This small but fun hour and 15 mins was a time for friends to get together, and for students to actually choose the sport they wanted to participate in like, ultimate Frisbee, touch football, soccer, field hockey, hiking club, and many more. It let the student decide and it was good to see a large number of participants. Can I create an atmosphere like that in my Phys Ed classes? I hope so, nothing wrong with aiming high.
