Book excerpt: Welcome to bel's book of social distancing games! Let's be honest – coronavirus and its consequences have had a huge impact on everybody and all aspects of our lives. It has not been easy, but teachers everywhere have risen to the challenge. Classes have been taking place online, via telephone conferences, and slowly but surely, back in the classroom. bel always tries to meet the needs of both students and teachers. On this occasion – particularly mindful that fun is more important than ever – we have put together a compendium of games that can be played by classes whilst keeping to the social distancing guidelines and rules. Teachers and students alike can have fun, play with the English language, socialise, learn, and not be defeated by something that is 400 times smaller than the thickness of a single human hair. The games generally require little in the way of preparation. Some need a board or flipchart, some need pen and paper, and some need nothing at all. None of the games are reliant on the students interacting closely with each other. Everybody can keep their distance. It only remains for us to say: have fun, be safe, and stay healthy!

Download or read book Socially Distanced Games with No Contact written by Paolo Macagno and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains a collection of 16 unpublished games (with pictures), divided into 2 groups: revisited traditional games and new made-up games. It could have been called "old games with new elements" and "new games with old elements". In fact, my aim of providing teachers, educators and children's entertainers with a collection of engaging, functional, effective, enjoyable and educational activities, meant that I couldn't overlook traditional playground games. Bearing this in mind, I have tried to concentrate on developing both feasible and enjoyable activities, either indoors or outdoors (although given the choice I would without doubt plump for the latter), for boys and girls aged between 6 and 11, in small and large groups whilst also maintaining the preventative measures against infection which gradually arose at the turn of 2020, the consequences of which have been felt by schools as well as recreational and sports facilities. It therefore presents recreational ideas and a model for primary school teachers and operators of extra-curricular and recreational groups of how to approach physical and group games during the current health emergency, where the necessity of physical and social distancing cannot and must not lead to the breakdown of the most natural and human basic needs during childhood development. "In defiance" of the current virus and any future pathogens of a similar nature which may jeopardize the correct development of our youngest citizens, I have called on my 30 year experience and training in the field of recreational education and group games to construct a "model repertoire". It aims to offer quality recreational games, enriched by the use of updated co-operative equiment (which have been marked in each game), which involve movement and can be played in groups whilst maintaining a safe distance and an individual use of materials (often essential to the game) guaranteeing the health and hygiene safety of the participants. Become familiar with these games, get to know them inside out, try them out, experiment with the many possible variants which increase the complexity of the game and the input from participants, understand how and which skills and abilities are needed from the players and the adult supervisor will, without doubt, improve their recreational educative skills. This will in turn lead to increased satisfaction and motivation in not only promoting old games which never grow tired by revising and updating their elements and contexts but also by inventing new ones based on the most effective and common parts of the old traditional regional, national and international favourites. This is why the "original" games contained in this publication should really be considered "examples".
