Things You'll Need:
- cheap equipment such as hula hoops, cones, jump ropes, etc.
-
Step 1
The first thing is to start counting things you already do. Does your child have a play group or sports group that meets regularly? Does your family go to the rec. center? All of these activities count as p.e. and although states do not specifically require that you teach p.e. they may require that you keep track of the hours you teach. So be sure to include these time periods.
-
Step 2
Next you need to decide if your child has enough physical play time on their own. Some children will automatically spend enough time themselves. Some children do not. If they do, then I recommend that you just write down that time and not interfere.
-
Step 3
If you want to add an actual p.e. time or you want to add some diversity then try out a few of these ideas.
You can add a trip to the local park a day or two a week. You can also add an interactive video game like wii fit. -
Step 4
You can typically find a bunch of cheap material that can be used during your own p.e. class. This includes things such as a jump rope, some little cones and some hula hoops. Always think about different games that you all can play. Also think about different ways in which those materials can be used. Just because its a jump rope doesn't mean that is all it is good for.
An example is hula hoops lain on the ground as goals to run to or jump in, jump out activities. Keep track of what time you spend and keep track of what games you do that are a big hit or what do not go over very well.
