Managerial Games

1. Keep your Caboose:

This game is used for teaching the students how to walk down the hall correctly. Students will line up and the student at the end is deemed the "caboose." If any student breaks a rule while walking down the hallway they must walk behind the caboose. The goal is to have the smallest number of people behind the caboose by the time they reach their destination (walking to a field or back to the gymnasium).    Keep Your Caboose

2. Teamwork Hill
 This game is used to encourage the students to follow the classroom rules. There will be large pictures of fruits or foods all around the gym. Every class is represented by a cartoon ant and as the students follow the rules (e.g. coming in quietly) they will earn points. As the students earn points their ant will move from food to food until they reach "Teamwork Hill." The first class to reach teamwork hill gets a prize. Teamwork Hill

3. Super Stars
This is a quick and simple activity that can be used while the students are waiting for their classroom teacher. Two students are the "superstars" and they count out "1-2-3-superstars!" While they are counting, all other students in line dance and when they say "superstars" all of the students freeze in a "superstar pose".  Superstars
