Phys. Ed. Activities for Wednesday, January 6th

 Happy Wednesday, Le Roi Daniels!

Please start by watching the video below (Mr. Johnson's house doesn't exactly have movie-quality lighting and/or sound... but it's pretty close):

For activities today, you'll need a few socks rolled up like I did in the video, and a bit of space! If your parents ask why you're throwing socks around the house today, you can say it was Mr. Johnson's idea!

Do the following, in order:

1. Throw and catch your sock ball 10 times using only your RIGHT hand

2. Throw and catch your sock ball 10 times using only your LEFT hand

3. Throw and catch your sock ball using alternating hands (left to right, then right back to left) 10 times

4. Try throwing the sock ball as HIGH as you can (but don't hit the ceiling!) and catching it with both hands 10 times

5. Throw the sock ball behind your back, and catch with both hands

6. Throw the sock ball in the air, let it bounce off your head, and then catch it with both hands (you've probably seen Mr. Johnson doing this in class all the time!)

7. Use your SWING, STEP, TOSS (or underhand) throw to SAFELY AIM your sock ball at something in your house - your couch, for example

8. Come up with your own "trick move" to creatively throw and catch your sock ball

Have an awesome day, Le Roi Daniels! 

Mr. Johnson
