Title - I See: A Warm-up Exercise
By - Bob Colombo
Primary Subject - Health / Physical Education
Grade Level - 1-4

- Start out by having your students spread out in the gymnasium, facing you.
- You will say, "I see".
- Your students will reply "What do you see?" (Make sure they all say this in unison; the students love this part!)
- Then the teacher will say what they see (ex. I see all students moving around the gym without touching their classmates).
- Some other examples would be I see all students: skipping, jumping, hopping on one foot, galloping, jogging, moving like their favorite animal, flying like a plane.
- A good way of ending this exercise is by saying, "I see all students quietly returning to their original spots."
- Most students seem to really get into this exercise and it can be a very effective warm-up
