Objective: To encourage physical activity, spatial awareness, and risk-taking in a safe and supportive environment.

Materials: Playground with climbing equipment, such as ladders, slides, and climbing walls.

Procedure:1. Warm-up (5 minutes)
* Have children run around the playground, touch their toes, and do jumping jacks.
* Encourage them to explore the playground and identify different climbing structures.
2. Climbing Stations (20 minutes)
* Divide children into small groups and assign each group to a climbing station.
* The stations can include different types of climbing equipment, such as ladders, slides, and climbing walls.
* Ensure that children follow safety rules, such as facing forward when climbing, using only the designated climbing areas, and holding on with both hands.
3. Guided Climbing (10 minutes)
* Guide children through a specific climbing sequence, such as climbing up a ladder, across a platform, and down a slide.
* Provide verbal instructions and demonstrate the movements.
* Encourage children to overcome challenges and take risks.
4. Open Climbing (15 minutes)
* Allow children to choose their own climbing challenges and explore the equipment freely.
* Encourage children to work together to help each other climb and overcome obstacles.
5. Cool-down (5 minutes)
* Have children walk around the playground and stretch their muscles.
* Discuss the importance of being active and taking calculated risks.
* Ask children to share their favorite climbing experiences.

Assessment:* Observe children's participation, spatial awareness, risk-taking abilities, and interaction with others.
* Use a checklist to track children's progress in each area.

Adaptations and Modifications:

* For children with limited mobility, provide alternative climbing structures such as ramps or inclined surfaces.
* For children who are hesitant to climb, offer support and encouragement, and start with smaller challenges.
* For children who are advanced climbers, provide more challenging routes and obstacles.

Safety Considerations:* Ensure that the playground equipment is well-maintained and safe for use.
* Supervise children closely at all times.
* Teach children the importance of following safety rules.
