falling using different body parts
QEP: COMPETENCY I, performing and repeating sequences of movement skills, using different body parts.
COMPETENCY II, communicating with other students.
Description:
Layer 1: Every student gets a balloon and finds its own spot in the defined playing space. The students start static (non-locomotor), moving the balloon with different body parts, and progressively moving (locomotor) with their balloon and different body parts.
Layer 2: In groups of two, make passes with the balloons (starting non-locomotor, progressing to locomotor).
Layer 3: Separate class into three or four groups. Make passes with the balloons.
MODIFICATIONS:
Find different ways so that the balloon does not touch the floor.
You can also make two groups that try to keep their balloons off the floor. When the balloon touches the floor, you lose it. After a determined period of time, the team with the fewer balloons on the floor wins.
SAFETY:
Remind the students to use space carefully, keeping their head up, scanning.
