s.m.a.r.t. spaces

At your S.M.A.R.T. workshop, you received insta-Balance Beams. Those yardsticks can still be used effectively but likely need a refresh.

This space allowed the Balance Beam to incorporate stepping stones. Students moved slowly in a heel-toe walk but had to step up with one foot on the stone before stepping down with the other foot and continuing a slow heel-toe walk. 

Do you have older students who can handle more of a balance challenge?

Add a few bean bags in between that they have to walk on tippy toes across before getting to the next yardstick.

S.M.A.R.T. activity guides and your notes from the workshop section "Start S.M.A.R.T. - Getting Started Keeping It Fun" has some other fun ideas to incorporate into the Balance Beam.
