May 4th - Challenge #5 - Obstacle Course


Hello Everyone!

So, I checked the weather report for this week and it looks like the sun is going to shine for most of the week.  We hope you are all getting outside to get some fresh air and exercise during these strange times.

Your challenge for this week is to create a sidewalk/driveway/backyard obstacle course.  If you have a driveway or sidewalk you can use sidewalk chalk to create a course that includes things like; hopping, skipping, jumping, spinning, following a curvy/zig-zaggy path and maybe even a target station where you have to hit the target with an object (like tossing a ball into a bucket or knocking down a milk carton with a tennis ball).  If you don't have a sidewalk, then find some things around your house/yard to create a back yard obstacle course.

The challenge is to get you moving in ways you would not normally move in a day using items you have around your house or yard.  I have included a couple of sample courses. but these are ONLY to help you get an idea where to start - you choose your own activities within your course.



Below is a video (it's less than 2 minutes)  you can watch to help you get some more ideas.  I can't wait to see what you come up with.  It would be SO great if you could post a picture of you on the course you designed.

HAVE FUN!
