Here are some ideas for how to use jump ropes with kindergarteners.
* lay the rope on the floor in a circle -- jump in and out, jump
over
* lay the rope in a straight pathway -- jump over the rope, forward
and back, side to side, scissor, straddle
* flip the rope over your head, lift toes and catch under feet (eyes
forward, back straight)
* use the ropes to form various pathways -- students travel along the
pathways using specified locomotor skills
* use the rope, on the floor, to form shapes and letters
