Is running backwards a safe activity for grade one students?
Children need to learn to travel backwards in control, either by walking or running. Young children should not be asked to race backwards. In racing situations, they lose control. Running backwards as an activity, not as a race, in the gym or outdoors is standard practice and prepares primary students for tag games andjunior and intermediate students for games such as floor hockey, basketball and volleyball.
