PYP PE Units

Stand alone units in PSPE account for the majority of PE lessons (given that Integrated units should be purposeful and combined when relevant).

Inquiry into Jumping

In this video, you’ll see a full lesson where we explore the concept of jumping through inquiry. Together, we break down the different elements of jumping—such as balance, take-off, flight, and landing—making it accessible and engaging for younger students. The lesson shows how inquiry helps students discover movement skills step by step, while having plenty of fun along the way!

Inquiry into Running

In this video, you’ll see a full lesson where students inquire into the skill of running. We break down the key elements—arm drive, leg action, body position, and rhythm—so that younger learners can clearly understand and practice each part. Through guided exploration and fun activities, students discover how to improve their running technique while enjoying the process of learning together.

Net Games

The central idea was linking the common themes in Net Games: - Hand/Eye coordination; Serving, returning and playing shots over a net; and then giving the students opportunities to experiment with this in different activities. We inquired through Badminton, Smashball, Volleyball, Table Tennis and Water volleyball. Click here for a full plan and linked videos/photos.

Athletics

In Athletics, our central idea revolved around how we could improve our own and others' performances. How could we run faster? How could we throw and jump further? How could we pace ourselves to save energy? We then linked it back to how could we create a successful Track & Field team for our end of Unit Sports Day. Click here for full UOI planner and videos.
