36 PE Fitness Circuit station cards for elementary & middle school sport activities

 

The Fitness Circuit cards pack is a must have for your school sport lessons. Suitable for Kindergarten - grade 8, these exercise cards cover the 6 components of fitness necessary to keep your students healthy and active: Core, flexibility & balance, stamina, leg strength, arm strength, and whole body exercise

 

1. 36 energetic station cards

› Simply print out (and laminate) the cards (A4 or A5), choose the circuit activities, and put them out around the sports hall. Minimal equipment is required, (at most a few balls, hoop & bench) so the setup of your lesson is so simple! 

› Divide the class equally at the stations and have them work for 45-60 seconds (you can play some loud, energizing music!). Blow your whistle and the students can then record their personal scores before rotating around to the next station (30 second rest period). Depending on your planned time for the lesson, students can go around the circuit twice or even 3 times.

Exercises: • ball twists • bicycles • crunches • side scissors • toe reaches • wind-wipers • crab kicks • hand walks • ski hops • star stretches • superman • 1-foot reaches • mountain climbs • plank • side plank • skipping • sprinting • wall sit • box jumps • frog jumps • hoop jumps • pistol squats • side lunges • surf switches • arm circles • bench dips • bunny hops • push ups • punches • wall push offs • airplane lunges • burpees • jumping jacks • knee ups • sumo kicks • squat & push

2. Online video demonstration support

You'll be given access to an instructional video for each activity (private YouTube videos). Play the video stations you’ll be doing for that session, so they’ll be prepared and know what to do when they get going around the circuits in the hall.

 

3. Fitness testing sheets

You can print out the circuit scoring sheets for students to individually record their results/points at each activity. They can then track and compare their results term to term and see how they have improved.

Bonus posters

As extra content, I've put together 6 high-quality posters, 1 for each fitness component, showing the activities. These can be printed A4 or even A3 for you to put up around your classroom or gym area. 

I know you’ll love these circuit station task cards – If you are a teacher at elementary, middle or even high school, you need these task cards to help keep your students healthy and active, and they’re great anytime of the year.

If you've and your class have enjoyed this pack, you'll LOVE Vol.2 here as well!

FAQ's

Which grades are these exercisies suitable for?

Most of them are suitable from kindergarten through to middle and even high school. No equipment is needed, and allows the students to work at their own pace and abilities.

I don't know anything about fitness

Not only are the printable task cards easy to understand, but the how-to videos show you exactly what you need to do, so all you need to do is set them up and even get the students to demonstrate for you!

Is this national PE standards aligned?

Yes, particularly 1 (motor skills), 2 (movement & fitness) and 4 (identify benefits of physical activity)

How long does a fitness circuit lesson take?

You can make the sessions as long as needed, from 5 minute brain breaks to 1 hr fitness development. You can run them as 1 minute stations to rotate around, or as pick & choose activities to repeat and test.

Is this suitable for mixed-ability classes?

Definitely - Students can work at their own pace, challenge themselves, and you can easily adapt the exercises to suit.

Love these circuit cards! I've used these during my 4th-6th PE classes, and during middle and high school PE breaks. The graphics are wonderful and fun, with eye-catching colors and helpful descriptions. I've laminated the cards and plan to keep using them periodically!

These are great! I played a version where I placed these all around the gym and put a red solo cup by each one. In pairs they had to take turns trying to flip the cup and whoever landed it first won and found someone else to play with, and the other person had to do the exercise for 20 seconds. When they were done, they found a new partner. It was fun, fast paced and got the students moving! 10/10 recommend.

Love this resource! Such a time saver and easy way to fill a phys. ed. class on busy planning days where you need something quick and easy! The cards are so easy to follow and give great visuals to help the kids understand what they need to do!

Good visuals, and instructions! The students were able to move from station to station without much instruction or management!

This was just what I was looking for to easily set up my PE fitness stations. There are many exercise options to choose from. Clear pictures that remind students what they need to do.

I put these into plastic sheet protectors and colour coded for each type of exercise. Students could easily set up the stations by hanging them on a cone. Was a very helpful resource for my fitness unit. Thanks for a great resource

Super for fitness unit

Despite my kiddos not loving this unit, I really enjoyed the ease of use and how esthetic the station cards are. I printed them and laminated them, used that sticky reusable glue so I could just get into the gym and quickly stick them up on the walls. I enjoyed the tracking sheet, as we could track beginning of the year and then end of the year. Easy to just grab a couple as a warm up at the beginning of a gym class.

Clear cards that are printed and laminated to use repeatedly. Students enjoy the challenges, and keeping record of their skills as we used them weekly.

I just started my fitness unit in gym with my middle school students. I found this resource easy and helpful, laying them out around the gym and giving my students time to fill in their fitness journals after visiting each station. Thank you!

These are a great starting point for our PE curriculum. I printed each page to keep in a binder. The activities have been easy to explain with the directions provided and I appreciate the graphics to coordinate.

Perfect for phy ed stations

My students love doing the fitness stations with these cards. They are easy exercises for the kids, provide good images for students to look at to copy and they love being able to record how many they were able to do during the allotted time.

This resource is wonderful! During a time where we can't use equipment (along with the fact that I have never taught Phys-Ed before), I was looking for something, anything that would save me! And save me this did! The demonstration videos, the posters, the tracking sheets....perfect! Students were engaged and teacher was happy. What more can you ask for?
