Note:

Moving Our Body Parts – Leaping and Walking

Leaping:

Leaping is a big jump that helps us move quickly from one place to another.
When leaping, we need to bend our knees, push off the ground, and land on both feet.

Walking:

Walking is a regular movement we do every day to move from one place to another.
When walking, we need to keep our backs straight, swing our arms gently, and take small steps.

Safety Rules in leaping and walking:

When leaping or walking, we must always be aware of our surroundings and look where we’re going.
We should avoid running into others and be cautious on uneven surfaces.

Non-locomotor Movements:

Non-locomotor movements are movements we make without changing our location.
Examples of non-locomotor movements include: bending, stretching, twisting, and balancing.

Evaluation:

Use the following questions to assess the pupils’ understanding:

What are the two movements discussed in the lesson?
State 2 safety rules when walking and leaping
Name three non-locomotive movements

Teaching Aids:

Demonstration materials
Chart or posters illustrating walking and leaping
Visual aids for safety rules

Group activity props for non-locomotive movements
Quiz or assessment sheets
Chalkboard or whiteboard
Chalk or markers
