Physical Education (2019) Grade(s): KG
Attempt to hop, gallop, jog, run, slide, skip, jump, and leap while maintaining balance.
Overview
Divide the class in half. One half of the class is on the floor in push-up position and the other half is standing ready to move. On signal, the standing students move around students on the floor. The students on the floor change from a raised push-up position to a lowered push-up position each time they are circled. On signal, reverse roles.
This is a great warm up activity or can be used when teaching the components of fitness. This resource utilizes jogging but many locomotor skills could be used to reinforce locomotor movements.
