Time to get off your bums, because motion is lotion for the body. Come learn a series of First Nations games from around Canada that can be used in the classroom on a rainy day or preferably outside.
Using the experimental model that the wilderness speaks for itself. The games will show the environmental connection that First Nations have to the land and its animals. Plus the games are a lot of fun and using simple debriefing skills you can sneak in a element of environmental learning for your group. No fitness requirements, good for all ages, even old teachers. Bonus: 3 cool outdoor knots for the knot impaired.
