Intro to Rhythms Show student Rhythms Art Talk and discuss What do you see? (Possible answers: music (rhythms, beats, and instruments), dancing (being able to move to a beat), and some dances require more than one dancer) Discuss Rhythms Skill Cues Animal Movement Exploration Using the CATCH Cards #139 147 Mighty Muscles Animal Movement, have the perform an animal movements to the beat of the music. When the music goes off, have freeze and point to the muscle that they felt being strengthened. Introduce the skeletal system (Display slides #5, 6, 8 in the 1 st Grade Skeletal System to help guide the skeletal system introduction.) As the are pointing to the muscle they strengthened, ask them if that is a muscle or a bone? (muscle) Tell them that they can tell because it is soft. Have them feel the movement of the muscle. Have the point to their elbow. Ask them if that is a muscle or a bone? (bone) Tell them that general space avoiding others.

Extension: Students who are (Finish assessing on the successful at the pendulum 1 st Grade Locomotor PT.) swing can add a jumper. Turning a Long Rope overhead (Use Jump Rope Skill Cues for Overhead swing.) Allow to practice without a jumper. Extension: Students who are successful at the Overhead swing can add a jumper. Rope turners gently tap the middle of the rope on the jumpers shoe 3 times, then turn the rope up overhead. Jumper should stand facing one of the rope turners. Teach The Chicken Dance (Track 4) from All Time Favorite Dances CD. Teach the Verbal Cues, demonstrate, and then have try it with the music. Single Jump Rope Direct teach proper technique for jumping rope. (Use Jump Rope Skill Cues for Turning a Short Rope.) Next have practice jumping while pretending to turn a rope. Then, add the rope. At this level, will turn the rope, let it land or be trapped at their feet before jumping over. When ready, have jump over the rope without stopping it. Introduce backward jumping. Describe the change in wrist position (back further). Practice without a rope. When ready, practice with a rope. Students in groups of 4. One student jumping a short jump rope. Two turning a long jump rope. One person jumping the long jump rope. (Start assessing 1 st Grade Jump Rope PT) Teach At the Hop (Track 7) from Rock N Roll Fitness Fun CD (Alternately kick feet. Hop 4 times on one foot then 4 times on the other foot. Repeat). Begin with Verbal Cues and Foot Pattern Introduction Have stand in personal space while introducing them to the following CATCH Cards #284, 285, 287, 290 Jump Rope Task Cards #284 Straddle #285 Skier #287 Rocker #290 Bell Students will practice each foot pattern without a jump rope. Students in groups of 4. One student jumping a short jump rope. Try using the foot patterns with the jump rope. Two turning a long jump rope. One person jumping the long jump rope.

they can tell because it is hard. Ask them if it will break. (yes, because it is hard) Repeat with other major (patella, ribs, skull, humerus, femur) Continue participating in Animal Exploration and repeat until all cards (movements) are performed with identifying the bones that are being used during each movement. Introduction to Long Rope Students will work in pairs. Each pair needs 2 (18 inch) cones and 1 (8 9 ft.) short jump rope. Tuck the ends of the rope through the top of the cones and have the rope hang so that it is touching the ground. Students practice jumping over the rope. When ready, one student uses their hand to move the rope in a pendulum swing while the other end is in the cone. This allows the other student to jump. (Use Jump Rope Skill Cues for Long Rope Pendulum Swing.) Perform the Hokey Pokey (Track 8) from All Time Favorite Dances CD. Use Verbal Cues. Health Integration: Review Health Integration: Review the teacher demonstration. Have names of the bones being used try it with the music during the dance. (ex. Phalanges concentrating on staying with (fingers), Humerus (Arm), Ribs beat. (Chest), Pelvis (Hips), Femur Health Integration: Which (Leg)) (Use 1 st Grade Skeletal bones do you move when you System.) perform this dance? Discuss how muscle and bones work together. (Use Muscles, Bones, Movement.) Muscles control movements. But muscles cannot work alone. Muscles are attached to your bones by tendons. The bones fit together to form the skeleton. Muscles and bones work together to make you move. When you exercise, you move. Your muscles work hard. Exercise keeps your muscles and bones healthy. Teach the Bunny Hop (Track 12) from All Time Favorite Dances CD. Use Verbal Cues. Health Integration: Students are in general space instead of in one line. Name and touch the names of bones as you jump forward one time(skull), backward one time (Ribs), and forward three times. (Humerus, Femur, Patella) (Use 1 st Grade Skeletal System.)

the names of the bones being used during the dance. Why is it helpful to learn locomotor skills? How did your heart feel while jumping today? When does it feel like that when you are not in the gym? How could you practice at home even if you don t have a jump What do muscles and bones do? (Bones support the body and muscles move the body/) Why is it important to do locomotor skills to a selected rhythmic beat? What could you use to jump with if you don t have a jump Describe the connection with locomotor skills and rhythm activities we have learned. How can these activities help you through life? Review the 1 st Grade Skeletal System. What does rhythms have to do with being able to jump a Where can you practice jump rope on your own? Exit Ticket: Point to your skull. Provide with the First Grade Skeletal. Exit Ticket: Point to your femur. Exit Ticket: Point to your humerus. Exit Ticket: Show me where your elbows should be when you are jump roping by yourself. Exit Ticket: Bunny Hop out of the door in a class line. Austin Independent School District 6/24/2015 Page 5 of 5
