Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Let learners sit flat on the ground with legs opened in 'V' and trunk erect. Learners put their right toes with the two hands and flex the trunk to touch the knee. Let them repeat to the other leg to test their level of flexibility. Measure the distance between the forehead and the knee of those who could not touch and record. Encourage them to work towards the target.
