Creative Movement and Large Motor PLay

Instructions for Individual Large Motor, Group Large Motor and Creative Movement Updated 2/28/12

As I am grading the Large Motor cards, I am seeing some confusion as to what kind of activity fits in which category. Creative Movement activities are those that the children are free to move in their own way, the teacher might make suggestions to move like the bird, but the child is choosing how they want to be a bird.

Individual Large Motor Activities are the large motor activities that might be done at Center time by an individual child or with a small group. These are activities that usually we have to wait our turn to do. Remember these will most likely be done in the classroom.

Group Large Motor Activities are more teacher led activities that involve the entire group of children and are done more likely at circle time! Be sure to really complete the cards, using the format that I gave you early in the semester with the sub categories listed, remember materials, guidance tips, alternates, etc, not just a copy and paste from the Internet... much of the information from the Internet is not relevant for these cards!!
