• Think about some different animals and try to move the way they do.

• Choose some different pathways that you could use to move like the different animals.

• Be as creative as you can.

Reflection:

• Which movements used just your feet? Which movements needed hands and feet?

• Which movements were the hardest? Which movement did you find easiest?

• Which animals move fast and which ones move slowly?

Option 2: Target Throwing
