Activity Set-up and Procedure
Equipment:
- 4 jump ropes
- 12 hula hoops
- 12 exercise bands
- 4 exercise balls
- 2 rulers or yardsticks
- 2 balls that bounce
- 6 Fitness Dice Charts
- 1 Fitness Portfolio per student
Set-Up:
- Create safe equipment zones by placing jump ropes, hoops, exercise bands, exercise balls, meter sticks, and balls in separate areas.
- Lay 6 hoops down in 2 staggered rows, with hoops touching, to create an agility run course.
- Scatter 6 other hoops in the activity area, with 1 die and 1 Fitness Dice Chart in each hoop.
Activity Procedures:
- The purpose of the Roll the Dice activity is to review the areas of fitness that we’ve learned about in this module. During the activity, I’ll be meeting with each of you to review fitness test scores and identify areas that you can focus on in order to maintain or improve your fitness.
- On the start signal, you and your partner will go to a die and roll it. This is not a race, so be sure to take turns in a respectful way. After you roll the die, look at the Fitness Dice Chart to see what exercise you’ll need to complete.
- Together, you and your partner will then move to the appropriate equipment and complete the exercise. Next, return to any die and roll again. Continue until you hear me say freeze.
