WARM UP!

Choose 1 or 2 learning tasks to do for your PE lesson today!

Option 1: Gymnastics

Watch the different videos below to practice some different gymnastics skills. Once you have practised them all have a go at putting together your very own little gymnastics routine by joining different movements together, creating a movement sequence. You may even like to take a video to share next week!

**Please make sure you participate safely and do not do anything you don't feel comfortable trying.

Reflection

  • What Gymnastics skills did you find easy? What was more challenging?

  • Which skills did you put into your routine?

Option 2: Target Throwing

Equipment: Tennis ball, other small ball or balled up socks

Set Up: Find a target outside that you can aim at.

Technique: Remember the overhand throwing technique, front hip aiming at the target as well as the non throwing hand. Throwing arm behind head as shown in the video and turn your body as you are throwing it. Try throwing with both hands during this activity.

Reflection: What worked well? Which hand was it easier to throw with? Why might this be? How did you feel at the end of the activity?


Option 3: Ball Bounce (Basketball)

Equipment: Basketball or any other ball that bounces.

Set Up: Outdoors is preferred as we do not want to damage anything.

Technique: Follow along with the video and move through the stages of the activities. Bounce 10 times on your left and right hands then moving into alternating hands while bouncing. The final part is a bit tricky bouncing with each hand below you knees, give this a go

Reflection: What worked well? Which hand was it easier to bounce with? How did you feel at the end of the activity?


Option 4: Dice Fitness

Equipment: If you have a 6 sided dice (1-6) at home use this, if not can you make your own dice using a box, some foam, a sponge, use a virtual dice or use a template to make one?

Set Up:

1. Put on some of your favourite music and do till the end of a song or put on a timer on a device or watch and complete for 10 minutes.

2. Roll the dice, find what exercise that number represents and perform that number. Click here for the exercises.

Reflection:

  • Did your muscles and body feel tired in this physical activity?

  • Which exercises did you find easy/hard? Why do you think this might be?
