Today we’re talking all about how to structure your class (on a daily basis!)

 

 

Basic class structure:

  • Stretches
  • I can statement (focus)
  • Movement activity
  • Main focus of the class (what concept are we working on?)
  • Extension activity (working on the main focus of the class)
  • Closing activity

If you need some movement activities, your can read or watch by grade level:

 

 

Ideas to make your class more engaging:

  • Change the activity often
  • Change the level (are they sitting or standing? Are they focusing or just chilling?)
  • Get the kids involved (they should be doing things!)
  • Add movement whenever you can
  • Minimize transitions
  • Use Google Slides

See you tomorrow!
