Question 4
Name and briefly describe five pieces of
equipment used for physical activities
that can be made from recycled material.
Indicate for what purpose of improving
learning and gross motor development it
can be used.
Here are five examples of equipment for
physical activities that can be made from
recycled materials, along with their
purposes for improving learning and gross
motor development:
Cardboard Box Obstacle Course:
Description: Recycled cardboard boxes can
be transformed into an obstacle course.
Boxes can be stacked, arranged in tunnels,
and set up as hurdles.
Purpose: This obstacle course promotes
gross motor skills development by
encouraging crawling, climbing, jumping,
and balancing. It also enhances spatial
awareness, coordination, and problem-
solving as children navigate through the
course.
LSP1501
Plastic Bottle Balance Beam:
Description: Empty plastic bottles can be
filled with sand or water and capped
securely to create balance beams of
varying heights.
Purpose: The plastic bottle balance beam
helps improve balance and core strength as
children walk along the beam. It also
ASSIGNMENT 9 2023 encourages concentration, body
awareness, and control over movement.

Question 1
Create and design your OWN multi-station lesson for a Grade R class. Use one A4 page and
draw the activities for the warmup, four different stations (aim and outcome) and a cooling
down. View your study guide for the requirements. (12)

Warmup
Theme: Exploring the Senses
Warmup: Sensory Stretch
Activity: Gather the students in a circle.
Play calming music and guide them
through gentle stretches while engaging
their senses (touch, hearing, and
movement). Encourage them to describe
how their bodies feel during each stretch.
Station 1: Aim Station 2: Aim
Station 1: Sensory Art Station 2: Sound Hunt
Aim: To engage the sense of touch and Aim: To enhance listening skills and auditory
creativity. perception.
Activity: Provide various textured materials Activity: Set up a listening station with
like fabric, sandpaper, cotton balls, and headphones and recordings of different
feathers. Let students create a sensory sounds (birds chirping, rain falling, a door
collage using these materials, exploring creaking, etc.). Give each student a listening
different textures and gluing them onto a sheet with pictures of the sounds and
large sheet of paper. encourage them to match the sounds to the
pictures.
Outcome: Improved tactile awareness and
creative expression. Outcome: Heightened auditory discrimination
and vocabulary enrichment.

Aim: To explore the senses of taste and Aim: To connect with nature using all the
smell. senses.
Activity: Prepare a variety of simple foods Activity: Take the students outside for a

Outcome: Increased awareness of taste Outcome: Heightened sensory appreciation

expansion, and sensory memory connection to nature.
development.
Cooling down
Cooling Down: Mindful Breathing
Activity: Gather the students in a circle
again. Guide them through a simple
mindful breathing exercise, where they take
slow, deep breaths and focus on their
breath as a way to calm down and relax
after the active stations.
Overall, this lesson plan focuses on
engaging multiple senses through hands-
on activities and experiences, which is
crucial for the development of young
learners in a Grade R class.
