12-15min
Stop students when you see exemplary movements taking into account
the speed of the song.
Learning Activity #4
Numbers Run
Students move around gym to music, showing the movement ways we
have been learning. When the music stops, I will yell out a number
between 2 and 5. Students are required to quickly find a group with that
amount of students. Once in the group, those students must all freeze
with the same body parts touching the floor as learned in first activity.
This activity will force students to think quickly, and decide as a group
quickly which body parts to touch the floor (SYNERGIZE). Once the
music begins again, students move their own individual ways again.
10min
Make sure that students are aware that number may not always work
out. If a student finds themselves unable to find a group with the
correct numbers, just quickly join the closet group to them.
