Wolf Achievement 1 – Feats of Skill – is all about getting stronger and faster. This achievement can be spread out over several meetings or done all at one meeting. See my article Tips for Wolf Achievement 1 – Feats of Skill for more thoughts on the different approaches.
This meeting plan covers all of the requirements in a single meeting. This meeting definitely lends itself to an outdoor setting, so meet at your school playground or a park if you can.
