Today in class we organized a real agility championship!
With the help of simple balls, they practiced important skills: fine motor skills, coordination of movements, concentration of attention and reaction speed.
What were we doing?
- We rolled balls around the desk and caught them. We trained the smoothness of movements, hand and eye synchronization, and learned how to calculate strength and trajectory.
- We collected marbles in a basket to develop precision, patience, and the ability to control small objects.
- Throwing balls at a target from a distance improved accuracy, quickness of reaction and spatial thinking!
Why is this so useful?
- Fine motor skills are directly related to speech and thinking.
- Coordination helps you better manage your body in everyday life. We practiced the reaction speed by throwing balls with one and two hands in different ways.
The students did an excellent job! And most importantly, we enjoyed the process.
Try these games at home! All you need are balloons and plastic cups.
