• Motor planning – following a consistent movement pattern from top to bottom
• Postural awareness – maintaining body position while completing a task

WARM UP AND COOL DOWN

Before starting the printable, prepare the body with symmetrical movement warm-ups. Start with a warm-up ideas such as moving like snowflakes. Try moving your body in symmetrical ways just like a snowflake is the same on both sides:

• Lift both arms up together and slowly lower them
• Step both feet apart and together at the same time
• Give two thumbs up, then two thumbs down
• Reach both hands forward, then both hands overhead

Try making a snowflake with a friend for partner matching movements:

• Stand back-to-back or side-to-side
• One student creates a symmetrical movement
• The partner mirrors the movement exactly
• Switch roles
