Note: Musical arcade sounds make it more appealing and
add excitement to the activity.
This is an exercise code for the students to work in small groups to figure out the exercise or tasks
. Each letter has a keyboard symbol that matches it. The students are given a task/code sheet , then have to find
out the secret exercise or fitness activity. They work together within the small groups as a "team" .
Look at the alphabet letter , and beneath that letter is the symbol . On the task sheet , write down
the letter and execute the task the number of times as noted. As an alternative make more sheets so the students
have different "codes to break ." Include a time limit , then the next time try to beat a previous performance.
{ in the third task , the symbols should be the * asterick after the + symbol , not the ^ symbol and also the
next ^ should be an *asterick , too } so that it spells out , catch a ball}
