Learning outcomes
- I can display control when applying my movement skills into agility, balance and coordination based activities
What you need
- 4 handheld items:
- One red
- One blue
- One green
- One yellow
Activity 1 - Cone reactions
- Create a square using your four items as corners
- Stand in front of an item to play 'cone reactions'
- Ask someone in your home to call commands i.e. jog on the spot, star jump etc.
- On the 'GO' call, you must react and pick up your item as quick as possible
Activity 2 - Rainbow reactions
- Stand in the middle of your square
- As a colour is called, you are to run to that colour and back to the middle
- Make it harder by calling multiple colours
Progressions:
- Two foot jump to the colour and back
- One foot hop and back
- Core-ordination (see video)
Activity 3 - Twister
- Developing on from core-ordination
- Play twister using your four corners
- Count how many moves you can make before falling
