Monday, May 25th Warm-Up: The following are choices for warm-ups, you do not need to do this entire list. - Option 1: Visit the “Warm Up & Stretches” page. - Option 2: Visit the Yoga Weekly page - Option 3: It’s BINGO time! Cross off a Bingo item warm-up/activity each day. - Option 4: Visit the Alphabet Warm-Up page and stretch through some words you create! - Option 5: Parents/Facilitators, please visit: https://www.darebee.com/. Activity: Frisbee/Disc Golf Goal: To score your frisbee into your invented ‘goal.’ To play, you will need a frisbee, or any item that throws and lands well (bean bags, golf ball, wiffle ball, items that do not tend to bounce). You will also need a “golf hole” like a large bucket, hula-hoop, rope shaped in a circle, ice cream lid, or any other creative round item. Please remember…your ‘golf hole’ will move around. Overall, you only need one frisbee (or ball), and one golf hole/goal. So, your goal! To see how many throws it takes (like golf) to get your item into the ‘golf hole.’ In the game of golf, you can choose to play 9 holes or 18 holes. Each time your item landed into the hole, switch things around! Move your goal, and throw from where your score last landed. Side note: near FG Leary Elementary, there is a park called Walden Park. Walden Park has a Disc Golf course. When it is safe to touch it, you can go check it out! In the future, it would be neat to play! I’ll keep my eyes peeled for more for you guys! **If you would like, here are two different Frisbee Golf score cards (pick your preference)

After Monday and Tuesday are all done, you’ll be the kindest professional Ninja’s I’ve ever met! If you’re wondering…what does Ms. Lyon want us to do to be a Ninja?? Right below, you will find some suggestions. PLEASE use your safety, but also...use your best imagination to create some ninja skill ideas. Tomorrow, you’ll be doing this again, but, maybe you want to change your route, add to it, make it harder, etc! If you want, you can even do your Ninja course multiple times each day! You’ll notice that your practice makes you a faster and faster Ninja! I suggest making your course outside if the weather is nice! Here are two video suggestions: Obstacle Ninja Course 1: Only watch until 4:30 for ideas: https://safeyoutube.net/w/6meC Obstacle Ninja Course 2: https://safeYouTube.net/w/Q1bC Here are some other Ninja Route ideas/suggestions: These are just brainstormed ideas…go ahead and brainstorm a bunch of your own! - Use your pool noodles to make hurdles - Make yourself an obstacle course to speed through (around cans, frisbees, golf clubs, etc) - Place four paper plates down. Two are for your hands, two for your feet. Make your body move from your decided ‘start line’ to an ‘end line.’ In order to move, you have to slide your hands forward, then pulls legs/feet on plates up to meet your hands on the plate. Continue until you’ve made it to your end line. - Safely climb up your chain fence and down. - Place green painters tape on a wall. Make it lower than your height. If you do a lower height, you could do a wall plank or wall squat, but, make yourself move across the line doing those! - Place a ladder or skipping ropes down, make yourself move through them using a double foot jump. - Cut the bottom of cardboard boxes out, crawl through those or a cloth tunnel. - Create a move over/under area (can use noodles to go on top of the chair, or on the support under a chair). - SO many more. Brainstorm, Google, YouTube! These are just a few I brainstormed, and you can do it too! Anything you make is awesome! Tuesday, May 12th Warm-Up: Choose Option 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 (see Monday, May 11th for reminders). Activity: Repeat Monday. You can definitely change your course from yesterday! Try new things! If you’d like, you can time yourself and see how fast you can complete your whole Ninja course! You do not have to do this…I like safety and fun as the #1 priority. Here’s a little tip…after you’re all done your Ninja time, make sure you’re being verrrrry good at correctly and kindly putting all your items away. Your parents will be very appreciative of that!
