Teaching tips
Use familiar examples such as a running cheetah and a galloping horse.
Allow an animal in more than one category when the learner can explain the movement.
Review or omit page 6 before assigning it. Several printed scrambles do not form the intended movement words: for example, psih cannot spell hops and xjmu cannot spell jump. Supply corrected letter sets instead of asking children to guess missing letters.
