Gym Class for the week of April 27th - May 1st

Hello Kids and Parents

Thank you for all the comments on the hopscotch and balloon activities. They were very cool and I'm glad everyone enjoyed them. 

Here is something fun to do, too. Rain is in the air for this week, so let's try an indoor obstacle course (parents approval) 

       Here are some things you can put in your course:

          1.  Throwing at a target

       

          2. Going through a tunnel or something

    

          3. use a balloon for an activity 

          4. put crunches and push-ups in  

          5. use locomotive skills and you can zig-zag though cones or chairs etc,

          6. anything else you can think of and be creative  

Have fun and enjoy the obstacle course.

If its nice outside on Thursday you could do an outside course and try different things 

Thanks again and stay active and healthy Miss LeClair

Gym Class for April 20 - 24th

Hello kids and parents

 Thanks for all the comments and all the fun activities you all are doing. Keep up the great work. 

Here are some other fun activities you can try this week.

Hopscotch is an international game that works on jumping, coordination and fun.  Hope everyone has some chalk around the house. 

Now you can have some fun making your own hopscotch and playing. 

1. Remember to number your squares.

2. Find a small rock or stick to mark the square you are missing as you are jumping through your hopscotch.

3.Share your hopscotch with your parents and siblings. 

4.Draw different ones and enjoy.

Another fun activity is working with balloons  (if no one is allergic to them). 

The whole family can get involved and have a blast. 

You can have some relay races with the balloons by batting them and keeping them in the air as you move from one place to another. Try batting the balloon with one hand. Next you can put the balloon between your legs and walking and many other ways to move with the balloon.

The last balloon activities to have a family game of keep the balloon moving up in the air.  My family played this game sometimes in the living room and had a great time with a lot of laughs.

Enjoy the activities and be healthy

Gym class for the week of April 14-April 18th

Hello Kids and Parents

Lets try something fun and different from regular gym class. 

One day lets go for a walk or jog with the family and look for signs of spring. Is there anything else that is different with springtime?  

Try to walk for about 30 minutes to an hour.  Have fun and enjoy the outside.

On another day, try to have a family fun day outside by getting the Frisbee out and playing catch, get a ball out to play catch or soccer, or get the jump rope and start jumping.

Enjoy the family time and have fun
