Topic 6 Page 13

Flaming Hoops

Age Group: 

• Toddlers
• Preschoolers
  

Objectives:

• Child will develop large muscles by jumping and crawling 

CDA Competency Standard: ​
II.4.1a

• Activities, materials and equipment encourage children of varying abilities to develop their large muscles​

a) Gross motor skills are encouraged through developmentally appropriate materials, equipment and indoor/outdoor activities

Materials: 

• Hoola hoop
• different colored streamers
• scissors

Procedure: 

• Prepare for the activity by creating the “flaming” hoop. Cut the various colored streamers into foot-long strips. Tie them to one side of the hoola hoop, so that when you hold it up the “flames” hang down for the children to go through. Show the child how to crawl through the hoop and invite them to join you in play, holding the hoop upright for them. ​

Assessment: 

• During the activity, observe and record the child’s gross motor skills using anecdotal notes. Did they jump through the hoop? Did they crawl? Be sure to take pictures to share with family members.
