(This was done in Auburn last school year). Students are always encouraged to participate in fun runs or competitions outside of school. Sport Stacking ClubWhat is it? Using specialized cups, students up stack and down stack cups in pre-determined sequences using both hands. They attempt to do this as fast as they can. Benefits from this activity include increased hand-eye coordination, ambidexterity, and increased student achievement just to name a few. The Sport Stacking Club meets on Monday and Wednesday mornings at 7:30 a.m. Parent volunteers are always encouraged to help the students in cup stacking. You may also want to race the students.
