Controlling my Body!!

We were having loads of fun rolling the balls down the pipes today.  To add a bit of a challenge and risk, we taped one of the pipes to the side of the swing frame.  We then positioned the ladder against the frame,  climbed up and dropped the ball down the pipe and watched it shoot out of the bottom.
There were a couple of components to this challenge.  You needed to engage your muscles, vestibular and proprioceptive systems to to climb and balance, while holding on to your ball.  This took a great deal of confidence and concentration.  You were all so proud of yourselves!  You all enjoyed it so much that you practiced some social skills, by jumping back in the line and waiting for a next turn.  Well done everybody!  Everyone really enjoyed the physical challenge and being active.  Developing your gross motor skills now, will really benefit you when it comes time to go to school.  You will have complete control of your body.
