Vanishing Bean Bags

INSTRUCTIONS:

Spread beanbags throughout the area to allow 1 per student. Students move around the area until a signal is given. On the signal, they find a beanbag and sit on it. Each round, direct a new locomotor movement task and take away a beanbag.

TEACHING HINTS:

Scatter formation

Specify different body parts to be placed on the beanbags.

Circuit Training

INSTRUCTIONS:

Students do the best they can at each station within the time limit. This implies that not all youngsters are required to do the same workload. Students differ and their ability to perform fitness workloads varies. Make fitness a personal challenge.
Rope Jumping
Push-Ups
Agility Run
Lower Leg Stretch
Juggling Scarves
Curl-Ups with Twist
Alternate Leg Extension
Tortoise and Hare
Bear Hug

Conclude circuit training with 2-4 minutes of walking, jogging, rope jumping or other self-paced aerobic activity

TEACHING HINTS:

Tape alternating segments of silence and music to signal duration of exercise. Music segments (begin at 35 seconds) indicate activity at each station while intervals of silence (10 seconds) announce it is time to stop and move forward to the next station.

Use signals such as start, stop, and move up to ensure rapid movement to the next station.

Ask students to do their personal best they can. Expect workloads to differ.

Over and Under Ball Relay

INSTRUCTIONS:

Players take a straddle position in lane formation. The first player hands the ball overhead with both hands to the player behind, who in turn hands the ball between her legs to the next player. The ball goes over and under down the line.

TEACHING HINTS:

Form relay teams of 4-6 players on each team. This is an excellent relay for all students because it doesn’t require speed or quickness.

If one teams wins multiple times, create new teams.

INSTRUCTIONS:

What is the value of walking for health?
Have one student from each group report on what they wrote on their challenge cards.
Was there a common car most people saw?
What was the main animal passed on the walk?
How did your steps compare today to the number you took yesterday during the lesson focus?
