Physical Education

This week we are going to continue on the idea of throwing and include rolling. The skill that we are going to be working on is bowling. You will need a ball (or a sock ball). You are also going to need some objects that range from big (laundry basket), medium (small wastebasket), and small (empty water bottle).

Use this handout to keep track of your success.
Bowling is an underhand roll.
- You are going to get on your knees with your feet behind you and your bottoms up, not touching your legs or feet. Put the ball in your dominant hand (left or right). Take your opposite foot and put it flat on the ground in front of you so that one leg is up with the knee bent in front of you and the other knee is on the ground.
- Then practice the motion without a ball first. Tick Tock like a clock.
- You want to let go before the arm comes up to the waist.
- Now put a ball in your RIGHT hand and aim for the laundry basket or target releasing at the correct point that is 5 feet in front of them. Do this 20 times and use this worksheet to track how you are doing.
  - Each time you go, make an X for the targets that you hit and an 0 for the ones that you miss
- Now repeat but this time put a ball in your LEFT hand and have them aim for the laundry basket or target releasing at the correct point that is 5 feet in front of them. Do this 20 times and use this worksheet to track how you are doing.
  - Each time you go, make an X for the targets that you hit and an 0 for the ones that you miss
- Then, grab a water bottle and now do the same thing 20 times from EACH KNEE (Right an left hand) and aim to knock over the water bottle from 5 feet away
  - Keep track of how many out of 20 you knocked down at each distance

Protein:

We should try and eat protein to ensure we give our bodies lots of energy!
Our muscles, heart and stomach and our immune system are mostly made of protein.
Protein also helps build our hair and nails grow!
We should try to eat 3 to 5 ounces of protein a day!

There are many delicious types of protein to choose from:

- Meat, chicken, fish and eggs.
- We also include beans, nuts and seeds in the protein category.
What are some of your favorite types of protein to eat?

Health

Read and follow along with this story Gregory the Terrible Eater

Name the healthy foods Gregory wanted to eat in the story.
Draw your favorite protein and write two things you know about it (shape and color).

Just like proteins build up our muscles, this GoNoodle VIDEO will also help build your muscle strength!
