Activity Description
- Today we’re going to complete a series of Health-Related Fitness Challenges by working in stations and then rotating after 3 minutes.
- Look at the station number where you’re starting. Be sure to start with the same number on your challenge card (teachers provide an example). Write down how many repetitions of each exercise or challenge you complete.
- I will be at Station 6 helping with your individual assessment
KEY TEACHING POINTS – On signal reset the station equipment and rotate to the next
Grade Level Progression
- Provide detailed instruction for each station and post discussion questions at Station 12. This will allow you to circulate and supervise all stations.
- Provide a brief overview of each station and observe student performance as an assessment of reading and content comprehension.
- Give students 1-minute to read and review the challenge card, then check for understanding.
