Fishing Themed Motor Activities and Brain Breaks

It’s the end of the school year and summer is so close that you can taste it.  All the great activities of the summer lay ahead.  The problem is there  are a few things that need to be done before the school year ends!   The kids are having trouble sitting still, but can you blame them?  A solution to your problem could be letting the kids get up and move!  Using fishing themed motor activities are a great way to make it through those last few days of school.  They are also great to incorporate into those fishing units!
