PRACTICAL CLASS


In order to warm up, we did a game call "Follow the leader".
This game consist on make groups of four or five people. Each group have to form a line and the person who is the first has to do an exercise and the rest of the people have to do the same exercise. Later, they have to change the leader when the leader do two exercise. Moreover, we did the same but with two stretching exercise.



We continued with the Tag Game.
-Dani: In this game there is one person who has to catch the rest of the people. However, the rest have to run following the lines which are painting on the floor. And when someone is catching he or she has to sit down over the lines. And if someone run in the direction where is a person sit on the floor, the person who is running can´t croos to the other side. Only the person who catch can croos to the other side. 




Later, we did a works hop: "Understanding motor skills".                            
First, we were talking about the characteristics of the pattern of hop:
-The leg which is the support has to use the ball of the foot.
-The two arms have to move in the opposite direction.
-The swing leg has to be active.
-The swing leg has to go behind the support leg.

Besides, we saw some explamples with our classmates.


Then, we had to put in groups of three people and we had to go out in order to do observations to the way of the people hop. We had to do the sample to 10 persons. But we had to have in main some conditions like use a proper space, students had to run as fast as possible and the observers had to asses the motor action in a lateral plane ir order to see better the movement.

And after that we had to make notes in our table of results. In the table of result appeared the number of students, the type of observation and the sex.
The observations were:


  1. Is the swing leg active?
  2. Does the swing leg swing behind the support leg?
  3.  Does the swing leg steer the locomotor movement?
  4. Does the weight shift onto the ball of the support foot before extension at take off?
  5. Is the arm action opposing (moving in opposite direction) at the same time?
  6. Do both arms move in opposition to the legs or just one?
Later, after did the sample we had to make conclusions:
-University students do not have coordination.
-University students do not have a development of motor skills.
-There were only one person who did well the exercise.
-Most of boys do not move the ball of the support leg.
-Most of the people move only one arm or do not move the arms.
-The swing leg is activie in all the samples,

Finally, we were talking about our conclusions and the evolution of this motor skills:
  1. Develop the use of the swing leg.
  2. Develop the use of one arm.
  3. Develop the use of two arms moving on the opposite direction.
This link is the Activity


OPINION.

Related to the Dani´s game: I think that is not what the teacher said in the conditions of the Tag Game. Because most of the people are sitting all the time in the floor. This game does not promote exercise. There is only one person who is moving all the time. Also there are people who are eliminated. And the purpose of the Tag Game is to promote exercise and not eliminate people.

Related to the Work hop. "Understanding motor skill". I think that it s good activity in order to realize that the relation to hop and the movements of the body which are involved. I think that this activity is funy because we has to interact with other people. I understand that there a pattern of hopping but there are a people who have it and people who do not have it.
