Print out or create your own cards. Cut the cards out and place in a bowl. Pick one card out and do what the card says. Continue until you have done all 8 of them or did 8 picks. Challenge your family to join in the BEAN fun! Be sure to read all of the instructions.

Week 4 (May 4 - 8, 2020)

Lets get your body moving! For this activity you will be using a skipping rope and some floor marker. If you do not have a skipping rope that is okay, you can use other items found around your house (with your parents permission). For ideas on what "around the house" items you can use, check out the full instructions on the Locomotor Instruction Sheet.

We will be focusing on locomotion and non-locomotion. Those are some big words, all it means is:

  1. Locomotion: to move from one spot to another.

  2. Non-Locomotion: move you body without moving your feet.

Go ahead and give it a try!
