Yr 5 & 6 Homework Challenges Autumn 2 2022

Devise your own activity or game to develop your dynamic balance (on a line) and counter balance (with a partner) thinking of ways to make it more challenging.

With a friend or on your own perform a marching action forwards and backwards, lifting knees and elbows to 90 degrees. 

With a partner stand on one leg holding with one hand, lean back, hold balance and then move back together. Try and see how you can make this more challenging for yourself. 

Continue to practise your dynamic balance and counter balance FUNS challenges.
