Lab 3 - Locomotor Skills Applied in Low Organized Games

1. Select one of the locomotor skills and create your own set of teaching cues. 
                    Slide
- choose a foot to lead with (right)
- slide left foot towards your right foot
- left foot chases and catches your lead foot
- continue the chase over and over

2. Identify the specific pathways used in each of the low organized games presented in the lesson focus. 
The specific pathways that we used today in each of the low organized games were:
- straight
- curved
- zig zag
- circular
Giving students certain pathways to follow during the lessons, teaches the students to respect one another by saying excuse me if they are both on the same pathway and also to incorporate some dodging skills.

3. Select a topic for a class talk and outline the questions and key points that would help you guide a class talk. 
Topic: Healthy Choices for Breakfast
a) Alright class, I have a quick question. Can someone tell me what the most important meal of the day is? Student says ... (breakfast).
b) (great job!) What are some foods we all had for breakfast this morning? Student says ... (pancakes).
c) Now class, are pancakes a breakfast food we should have everyday or just once a week? Students says ... (once a week)
d) (awesome answer) Can someone tell me a healthy food choice for breakfast? Student says (oatmeal)
e) (great choice!) Starting your day off with a healthy breakfast prepares you for a healthy life and a great day at school!

4. Make a checklist of performance points to look for in one of the locomotor movements. 

5. Low Organized Game (1)
I actually taught this lesson at an Elementary School school a few years ago and my students loved it!
