Content Development: Moving Our Body Parts

Note to Pupils:

Running

Running is a way of moving our body parts where we use our legs to move quickly on our feet. When we run, one foot leaves the ground while the other pushes off, and we move forward at a faster pace than walking.

Skipping

Skipping is a fun way of moving where we jump from one foot to the other while swinging a rope over our head and under our feet. It’s like a dance with jumps, and it’s a great way to exercise and have fun at the same time.

Evaluation:

1. What are the two locomotor movements we practiced today?
2. Why is it important to stay physically active?
