TRY TO LEARN TO TIE
*Really impress your classroom and physical education teachers when you return to school and you have learned how to tie your shoes!
*Below are two great links that demonstrate how to learn to tie your shoesSTEP 1 - Place the shoes on a flat surface. Let the laces fall to either side of the shoe.
STEP 2 - Tie a basic knot. Take both laces and thread one lace over the other and then pull them tight. They should form a knot in the middle of the shoe.
STEP 3 - Tie another knot, but don't tighten it. Keep the second knot loose. Notice there is a circle shape formed by the knot. Hold the circle shape with your hand and lay it flat against the shoe.
STEP 4 - Thread one shoelace into the circle. It should come through the circle and over to the other side of the shoe.
STEP 5 - Thread the other shoelace into the circle. It should come through the circle and over to the other side of the shoe.
STEP 6 - Pull your loops tight. Use your hands to pull the loops tight so they are secure.NOW YOUR SHOES ARE TIED!
