Innovative Collaboration Enhances Traditional Tag Game

Mrs. VanDee, a Physical Education Teacher at Willard Prior, attended a conference where she learned valuable insights from fellow Physical Education teacher and coach, Tom Gelardi, known for his viral fitness videos for kids.
Inspired by these ideas, Mrs. VanDee collaborated with her Madison-Oneida BOCES student, Trace Studebaker, to build an "octopus" for students to wear during a game of octopus tag.
This was a creative way to make a traditional game more exciting!
