Read Hop Jump by Ellen Stoll Walsh. Talk about the different body parts that allow the children to hop and jump. Have the children demonstrate. Secure hula-hoops and blocks to create an obstacle course in the classroom or outdoors. Encourage the children to hop inside the hoops and jump over the blocks. Play children's hip-hop music in the background as they hop and jump. Try music by the artist Secret Agent 23 Skidoo. Take pictures to create a class Hop Jump book and place it in the book area.
