It is most meaningful to engage students into gross motor activities that incorporate fun, imagination and creativity! The materials will allow me to build fun obstacle courses for students so they can improve in the area of motor planning, body coordination, core strength and visual motor control. This will allow them to succeed in the classroom as with increased core strength they will be able to maintain good sitting position and stay on task. With improved visual tracking they will be able to do better in reading, writing and in other tasks incorporate visual motor component. As they coordination improves my students will be able access playground and integrate with other students!
