Description:
The student will demonstrate a high block, muscle block, and low block while blindfolded. This will help them build good listening skills as most children this age are still in a visual stage of development.
Teaching SKILLZ:
EXTRINSIC MOTIVATION – If the student can block correctly all three times, then the instructor will do three pushups.
Brain SKILLZ:
AUDITORY PROCESSING – The student must be able to listen to what block is called out, and do the correct block without any visual cues.
Step 1
Divide your students into lines.
Step 2 – Setting Up the Drill:
For each line you will need a blindfold and an instructor.
Step 3 – Explain the Rules:
I am going to put a blindfold on you.
I will call out a high block, muscle block, or low block and you must perform the correct move.
Your goal is to perform all three blocks without making a mistake.
On the second turn, call out a left and right high block.
On the third turn, call out left and right blocks at random..
