Hoop Jumping
Tuesday we started our Jumping, Hopping, and Leaping Unit. Students learn how to "lock, load, and explode" their body so they can move high and far through the air. I use this cue to help students remember to swing their arms forward and bend their knees. Today students created jumping and hopping pathways with hula hoops. Each team had 6 hoops to use and a cone to mark the start. Then students jumped from one hoop to the next. Students had the option of moving the hoops further apart for a challenge. Near the end of class, students were able to rotate to other group's pathways and try them out.
