Spread mats a safe distance from each other throughout the playing area. Have students spread out in the area. On the teachers signal, students are to move throughout the space using locomotor movements of their choice. Upon coming to an open mat students are to move across the mat using some sort of weight transfer.
Some choices are to log roll, cartwheel, forward roll, egg roll, leap over, walk over, etc.
Students must be completely off the mat before a new person can go to a mat. Please make sure to tell students that they need to make sure it is clear before moving over the mat. Not all students have to go to a mat. They are free to just move about the general space on their feet. It is best to have students NOT RUN during this activity.
