Did you know the word “circus” comes from the Latin word meaning circle or rings?
Did you know in 1781 B.C. in the tomb of a prince they discovered pieces of artwork displaying Egyptian women juggling?
Welcome to the Circus Unit.
Lower elementary students will be learning how to juggle 1-2 items, walk on bucket stilts, balance on a balance board, spin plates, balance birds on fingers, balance feathers, jump rope, catch a ball on a zig zag pole, and use flower sticks.
Upper elementary students will be practicing how to juggle 3 items, balance on a balance board for at least 10 seconds, and play catch with a partner using a zig zag pole. The students will learn how to do tricks on a diabolo, jump into a turning jump rope, and walk on stilts.
