Plan: Have fun. Learn about our own space. Learn the word FREEZE. Move like a cat moving slowly and a mouse scampering quickly (WALK - RUN).

Warm-up: Movement ed. Find a space, your very own space where you are not touching anyone or anything. This is your own space. It is yours, no one else is IN it. Reach to the top of your own space, bottom and around your space. It is as big as your reach. You are IN your own space. Use your outside voice. Say,"FREEZE." Now use your inside voice. FREEZE means to stop where you are and not move a muscle and to listen. Let's practice. But remember where your own space is so when I say,"Go home", you can go back to your own space. Move OUT of your own space, walk around the room, FREEZE, walk faster, can try jogging or running, repeat to reinforce FREEZE and finding their own space.

Game or Activity: Name game - say name - clap rhythm - can put to a simple movement pattern with hands. Put music on - move like a cat walking slowly. A mouse scampering quickly. Walk like an elephant, run like a cheetah, jump like a snake. Creep - using only arms. Crawling - using your hands and knees. Crawl through the tunnel.

Free time, Pick-up time, Relaxation: Sit down - take 3 deep breaths - Sing the ABCs - Start loudly and get quieter. End with a story or a talking time.
