PE Superstars!

This term in PE we are developing our personal skills.

Our learning goals are:

• I can follow simple instructions and practise safely.

• I ask for help when appropriate.

• I try several times if at first I don't succeed.

• I have begun to challenge myself.

Our fundamental physical skill focus for the first half of our personal skills unit is to develop our footwork. We have explored various ways to travel and how to perform these movements with fluidity and control. These movements include, skipping, hopping, galloping, side-stepping, and hop-scotching. We have challenged ourselves by attempting different variations on each movement.

We have applied these footwork movements with a classic game of 'Rock, Paper, Scissors', where the children have to travel to the winner and loser zones to play the game depending on the result of their individual games. We have also applied our development of these movement skills with a game of 'matching pairs'. The children have amazed themselves at how much they can achieve by being resilient and trying several times if at first they don't succeed.

We hope you enjoy our photographs of us developing our skills.
