Retell the Story*
Use the following story elements to retell the story:
Who are the main characters? How do you know?
What is the setting of the story or where does it take place?
What happens in the story? What problem/s do the main characters have? How do they solve those problems?
How does the story end?
*Use the text provided or choose your favorite read aloud. Retelling is an important comprehension still for students still learning to decode. Read Alouds also model fluent reading for students.
Today we're going to focus on ball skills. Can you do each skill 10 times with a ball (or a 'sock ball' if you don't have a ball)?
Toss and Try
With ball in personal space:
Bounce the ball and catch it.
Toss the ball up and catch it.
Toss the ball up, clap and catch it.
Toss and catch with the right hand only.
Toss and catch with the left hand only.
Toss from hand to hand.
Sorta Sporty
Dribble with hands and then feet, moving in different pathways.
Shoot like a basketball so it arcs and lands right in front of your feet.
Bowl (roll) the ball against the wall.
Toss against the wall and catch on a bounce off the floor; without a bounce.
Kick against the wall so it bounces straight back to you.
Rolling Around
Standing, roll the ball around your body:
In a circle, clockwise around both feet together; counterclockwise.
Back and forth in front of the body; behind the body.
In a circle around 1 leg and then the other.
On the floor:
In plank position, back and forth from hand-to-hand.
In sit-up position, between feet and then up overhead.
