In many parts of the country, the fall brings unpredictable
weather. The change of seasons often leads to changing plans at
a moment's notice. As a result, we often need to have activities
planned that can be used both outside and inside.
Some of us prefer to keep our students in the gym, especially
in the fall. We may feel that they are not ready to handle the
open spaces that an athletic field or playground area would offer.
Others of us want to keep them outside as long as possible, before
the weather forces us inside for another long winter. Finally,
for some of us, the weather is not a real factor in our planning.
If you are in the latter group, then this article is not for you.
If you fall into one of the other two groups, then I may have
some "flexible" ideas for you to consider.
