Physical Education
- The 4 year old student has improved hand-eye coordination by following the movement of the ribbon as they twirl and wave it in the air.
- Through ribbon dancing, the student has developed gross motor skills, including balance and coordination, as they move and dance with the ribbon.
- The activity has also enhanced the student's spatial awareness as they move the ribbon in various directions and patterns.
- Ribbon dancing has encouraged the student's overall physical fitness and stamina, as they engage in continuous movement and dance.
Encourage further development by introducing simple routines or dances with the ribbon, allowing the student to practice specific movements and steps. Additionally, incorporating music into the activity can help the child develop rhythm and timing while dancing with the ribbon.
