Movement Education

Today in my monvement education class with Dr. Bian, I revisited a part of my past that I almost completely forgot about. It took me back to elementary school where I first participated in this activity. The professor brought out a huge parachute, and we used it to work on a number of locomotor skills. We did a number of activities that got out heart rate going. My favorite was when we all lifted it up, and selected a few people to run to the other side before it it fell. This is great activity that I never thought I could enjoy as a college student. If I every end up teaching at the elementary level, I will be sure to try and include this activity in my classroom.
