4th Hour Alternative Exercises

For the next two weeks I will be conducting an Alternative exercise lesson with Mrs. Mckinley's class. I have given up my prep hour to work with her students on different exercises. On Tuesday I taught the students how to use a jump rope and to increase their cardiovascular health by performing different skills with the rope. At the end of the lesson I had the students jump rope for 1 minute, then they took their pulse for 30 seconds. When they got back to their classroom they wrote down their number on a piece of paper and multiplied it by 2 to get their heart rate. The students were wonderful for me and they enjoyed the more challenging jump rope activities that I introduced to them. My next day working with them will be this friday. I am undecided on what activity I will do with them. Any suggestions? :)
