		Gymnastics Lesson Plans, Activities and Assessments ^Votes:0 Gymnastics Lesson Plans, Activities and Assessments Top 5% in K-12 Education In every class the teacher finds that the children will vary considerably in their ability to perform. This is not the exception, but rather the general case. The teacher should not expect all children to perform activities in the same manner or at the same level of skill. It is important to allow children plenty of freedom to change and vary from the task as presented. The many variations that normally occur should be accepted and recognized as having their own unique contribution. Excerpted from the book "Teaching Developmental Gymnastics" by Garland O'Quinn, Jr. Safety, caution, care and common sense should be exercised when performing all gymnastics activities. Any activity involving motion can result in injur Read More Go to Site

		Parachute Play ^Votes:0 Parachute Play by Gail Szautner A parachute is a wonderful addition to the play equipment in any child care centre. Beautiful and sometimes calming, a parachute can create soft, whispering sounds or loud, rippling noises, depending on how quickly it is moved. Parachutes are usually made of brightly coloured, lightweight nylon and are equipped with strong, reinforced handholds. Why incorporate parachute play into your program? Because parachute games encourage cooperative, non-competitive play and reinforce turn-taking and sharing. While most gross motor activities for young children develop muscles in the lower body more than the upper torso, parachutes strengthen primarily shoulder, arm and hand muscles. When children work together to make the parachute billow, they also refine perceptual Read More Go to Site
