S.M.A.R.T. NEWSLETTER - February '21 HYBRID LEARNING

Stillness is the highest form of movement because it is the absence of movement. So how do we teach children the difference? We give them many, many, many opportunities to experience feeling the contrast between moving and being still. Helicopter Spins are one way to teach the difference.

During Helicopter Spins, the children:

1. Spin like a helicopter for 15 seconds.
2. Stop and stand as still as a statue for 15 seconds.

 
Repeat this sequence 10 times throughout the day.
