Honor Students' Achievements
This board puts students' records and achievements on display for the entire school and visitors to see. Slot holders make it easy to quickly change and update records or names. Simply take out the pieces of heavy-duty display paper and replace them with the new record.
Durable, High-Quality Construction
The board is made of a high-quality fiberboard, so it looks great for years. A double aluminum frame adds to the durability without adding a lot of weight. Secure it on a wall using 2 hooks mounted to the top of the frame. It is also lightweight, making it easy to take off the wall when needed to switch out records.
The board features one large slot (11"L x 2-3/4"H) to display the school or organization's name, and 51 smaller slots (5-1/2"L x 1-1/2"H) for names, events, or records. The board includes 11 sheets of perforated paper that fits perfectly into the slots. 10 sheets are for the small slots (120 pieces total) and 1 sheet is for the large slot (3 pieces total). A paper refill with 11 sheets is also sold separately.
Printable templates make it a breeze to customize fonts and colors of names, times, and events. Click to view the Small Template or the Large Template.
15 Fundamental Movement Skill Activities Using the HonorWall Board
The HonorWall Board is a versatile, dry-erase display tool designed to recognize student achievement and track progress in physical education. Its customizable, magnetic-friendly surface makes it ideal for setting class goals, organizing fitness challenges, and reinforcing teamwork. While it isn't a traditional piece of movement equipment, the HonorWall can become a dynamic part of movement-based learning by serving as a visual motivator, a task manager, and a station organizer that supports physical literacy and student engagement.
Below are 15 creative physical education activity ideas that incorporate the HonorWall Board in ways that support the development of fundamental movement skills. Each activity uses the board to promote responsibility, motivation, and engagement while reinforcing locomotor, manipulative, non-locomotor, and body control skills for students in elementary through high school.
1. Movement Mission Tracker: Use the board to list movement “missions” (e.g., leap over 5 cones, perform 10 twists). Students check off tasks as they complete them. Encourages goal setting and task completion.
2. Skill of the Day Challenge: Display one fundamental skill (e.g., hopping, galloping) on the HonorWall. Students must incorporate it into every activity during class. Builds skill repetition and focus.
3. HonorWall Obstacle Scoreboard: Set up an obstacle course. Students write their completion times or total laps on the board. Encourages effort, tracking, and perseverance.
4. Dice & Dash Wall Workout: Write six movement tasks on the board. Roll a foam die to choose one, then dash to a station to complete it. Combines chance with movement variety.
5. Target Skill Tracker: Assign specific skills to stations. Students write their name under the skill they’re working on. Reinforces personal goal setting and skill ownership.
6. HonorWall Movement Bingo: Display a bingo grid of fundamental skills. Students aim to complete rows by performing skills during stations. Encourages skill diversity and personal pacing.
7. Warm-Up Wonder Wall: Each day, write different warm-up activities students must complete before beginning PE. Encourages consistency and ownership of warm-ups.
8. Skill Check Station: Students self-assess and mark off completed movement skills on the board (e.g., “I can hop on one foot for 10 seconds”). Promotes self-evaluation and growth mindset.
9. Fitness Feats Leaderboard: Track personal or team fitness achievements on the board (e.g., “Most consecutive jump rope hops”). Encourages effort and goal setting.
10. Emotion in Motion Wall: Students complete a movement to represent how they feel (e.g., leap for joy) and write it on the board. Builds emotional awareness through movement.
11. Secret Skill Wall Challenge: Write secret challenges behind sticky notes (e.g., “Slide across the gym and back”). Students reveal one and complete it. Adds mystery and excitement to movement tasks.
12. Teamwork Tracker: Groups earn stickers or marks on the board when demonstrating teamwork during physical tasks. Promotes collaboration and group accountability.
13. Wall Sit Word Builder: During wall sits, students spell out movement-related words (e.g., “HOP,” “DODGE”) using dry-erase markers. Combines literacy and muscular endurance.
14. Challenge of the Week: Write a weekly movement challenge (e.g., “Leap over 5 cones without stopping”). Students complete it and sign their name under the task. Encourages perseverance and repetition.
15. Class Goal Growth Chart: Use the board to set and visually track class goals (e.g., “100 total jumping jacks by the end of the week”). Celebrates effort and builds a team atmosphere through collective movement.
