Lab 3

1. Select one of the locomotor skills and create your own set of teaching cues.
Hop- pretend like the leg up got hit with a heavy object. Ex. It is hurting because your friend accidently stepped on your foot. Bend and extend the jumping leg. Wave to the floor goodbye with hopping foot. Double scoop the ice cream with your arms.

2. Identify the specific pathways used in each of the low organized games presented in the lesson focus.
The 3 pathways in the games played were. Straight pathways, Zi-zag pathways, and curved pathways.

3. Select a topic for a class talk and outline the questions and key points that would help you guide a class talk.
Topic: Respect. What is respect? How do you show respect to your friends and family? 
"when a person values another's opinion and thoughts then treats that person with dignity, it shows how valuable that person is to the other." 
When is it used? Why do we use it?
Make sure kids are raising hands and are given ample time to answer. Rephrase/summarize what each student has to say. Positivity.
4. Make a checklist of performance points to look for in one of the locomotor movements.
Running:  Everything in opposition  __
              Knees are up (not dragging feet) __
              Arms at/close to 90 degrees __
              Small amount of time where both feet are off the ground __

  1. I like your cues. Now try to make them shorter. We rather give 3 different shorter cues that 1 really long one. How can you say a full sentence in 1 or 2 words?

  2. Ok I see what you mean. I thought this was part of the teachers checklist to see if the students were doing the movement correctly.
