July 22: Team Work!

For the 2nd "Let's Get F.I.T.!" session, we decided to do get some TEAM SPIRIT going among the students in Gualandi.  We previously grouped them into three (3) teams -- and when it was F.I.T. time, we gathered them in the outside area of the school.  The first order of the day was to think of a TEAM NAME, elect a TEAM CAPTAIN and come up with a TEAM CHEER (complete with actions / choreography!).

The "LOVE TEAM" / Team Captain: JC


The "NARUTO TEAM" / Team Captain: Ram


The "TRANSFORMERS TEAM" / Team Captain : Shean


TEAM CHEERS!!!

Team Love

Team Naruto

Team Transformers

After each of the teams presented their cheers, it was time for a team challenge.  The game was called "The Atomic Bomb Transfer" -- where each team had to transfer 5 cups of water from one side to the other, using a device with a small cardboard platform (to place the glass on) and 8 long strings attached (they were to hold only the end of the strings).

Team Love goes first...



Team Naruto goes next...



And finally, Team Transformers... 



The team that transferred all 5 glasses in the fastest amount of time was Team Transformers!  Congratulations!!! :-)

For the next game, it was time to include the pre-schoolers with the bigger kids.


In order to make sure the little ones were taken cared of in the next game, we assigned each of them to a kuya (older brother).


The game was the all-time favorite, "The Boat is Sinking."  The kuya was to include his partner in any grouping he became a part of (and he was to count the pair of them only as one person).  

Okay... The boat is sinking, group yourselves into...


The boys do a good job being kuya....




The game gets more and more exciting...




Until the last four kids are left standing.... OUR WINNERS!!!


After a great morning of friendly competition and fun games, the teams gathered together again for a final round of photo ops.

Congratulations again everyone for another wonderful "Let's Get F.I.T.!" Day! :-)  Til the next one... :-)
