Entry of Gym and Explanation of Activities (2 Minutes)
Students will enter the gym silently and walk to their Squad Spot. They should sit straight down without sliding. Students will sit crisscrossed while you explain the days activities. Behaviors- Give three strikes to students who do not sit quietly or crisscrossed. On their third strike, they are to sit crisscrossed in the corners with their back against the brick wall. When you have time ask them why they are there and if they are ready to participate according to the gym rules. If they are, you may send them back into the activity. Please direct any major problems to the vice principals office. Safety- Use your judgment with regards to appropriate shoes. Normally, if the shoes have a rubber sole, I will allow the child to participate. Open toe shoes and slippers are not safe and students should sit out with their backs against the wall next to the office.

After a point is scored, and after a few minutes has gone by, a new set of 5 players comes out to play as the players on the court move to the sideline. Everyone must have had an opportunity to play before anyone may play twice.
