Agility breaks down when students can accelerate but cannot read space or decelerate.
The stable station map lets the teacher vary cues and pathways while students keep one reliable understanding of where each task belongs.

Why this exists
The problem is real.
So is the Fix.
Unit 3 keeps the four-station map predictable while the movement problem becomes directional: pathways, deceleration, changes of direction and responsive movement have to happen without turning the space into traffic.
Keep the room grammar stable.
Unit 3 uses the familiar MEET HERE + four-station structure so students can focus on direction & agility.
“Same room logic. New movement problem.”

Unit 3 teaching decisions
Agility is a control problem before it is a speed problem.
Changing direction safely requires students to read a cue, adjust the pathway and slow the body enough to make the next movement. Unit 3 works best when the teacher treats deceleration and space awareness as part of agility rather than praising the fastest cut regardless of control.
Students should understand where they may move before the direction starts changing. A clear route makes the later decision challenge safer and more meaningful.
Watch whether students can lower speed, plant and redirect without drifting into another lane. The ability to stop under control is part of the agility skill.
A colour, gesture or direction call is enough. Multiple simultaneous cues can turn the task into guessing instead of responsive movement.
Once students can change direction safely, add choice or reaction. If collisions increase, reduce the number of decisions before adding more rules.
A fast route that repeatedly crosses another group is not a successful agility task. Space awareness is part of the performance.
