Working alone or with a partner, children work on different tossing and catching challenges. Children vary the height of their throws. ![]() Children explore and experiment with moving and catching. Tossing TricksĬontinuing with the upward underhand tossing motion, children attempt to perform small tasks or “tricks” before catching the ball (e.g., clap their hands, touch their knees, or touch the floor). Consider suggesting creative scenarios for throwing and catching and having children share their own creative scenarios. After several turns, children will try to catch the ball before it bounces on the floor using an underhand catch. Using an underhand throwing motion, children explore tossing a ball into the air, letting it bounce once on the floor and catching it. Assessment OpportunityĮL-K Team observation of children’s demonstrated application of spatial awareness using large and small muscles as well as hand eye coordination in movement (underhand throwing) while using equipment can be recorded on the Anecdotal Recording Chart. Remind children to be cautious when moving, and to be aware of personal space. Clearly outline the boundaries for the activity making sure there is a safe distance between the activity area and the furniture/walls.
