Exercise balls are gaining popularity because they're fun and they work! People who are on the ball find themselves rolling toward improvements in strength, flexibility and cardiorespiratory fitness. Authors Anne Spalding and Linda Kelly published a version of this book just for kids, but they've done extensive research and discovered adults like to have fun, too — and stand to benefit just as much as kids in using exercise balls. Features a CD-ROM that includes an image bank, reproducibles, activity sheets, assessments, lesson plans, glossary of terms and more. Also includes an expansion from K-5 to all ages, photos, illustrations and anatomical drawings depicting the muscles as they are being worked in the five core activities and information and suggestions for using the exercise balls in adapted physical education. Over 110 exercises are included in the book. Softcover, 264 pages.
