Sample Activities:
· THE PACER - This activity helps students learn to pace themselves when running. Make two lines 20 meters apart. Students line up along one of the lines. On signal, students jog across to the opposite line and then return to the starting line. Encourage students to pace themselves so they arrive at the start in exactly nine seconds. Use a whistle, prerecorded beep, or music as the signal. After three attempts, double the distance (students go back and forth twice). Sound a signal at nine-second intervals. Discuss the ways students were able to pace themselves during the exercise. Ask: “Where else might pacing be important? Do you use pacing in the classroom? How?”
